Upgrading Android Studio Gradle to 6.1.1 breaks Greendao3GradlePlugin

This morning I upgraded Android Studio to use Gradle 6.1.1.

Now, my attempts to build fail with the following error:

Unable to find method 'org.gradle.api.tasks.TaskInputs.property(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/Object;)Lorg/gradle/api/tasks/TaskInputs;'. Possible causes for this unexpected error include: Gradle's dependency cache may be corrupt (this sometimes occurs after a network connection timeout.) Re-download dependencies and sync project (requires network)

The state of a Gradle build process (daemon) may be corrupt. Stopping all Gradle daemons may solve this problem. Stop Gradle build processes (requires restart)

Your project may be using a third-party plugin which is not compatible with the other plugins in the project or the version of Gradle requested by the project.

In the case of corrupt Gradle processes, you can also try closing the IDE and then killing all Java processes.

I used Gradle Build Scan to find the issue.

The issue is with the Greendao3GradlePlugin third party plugin.

Does anyone know how to resolve this?

Solution

  • You should update Greendao to the lastest version

    
// In your root build.gradle file:
buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        mavenCentral() // add repository
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'org.greenrobot:greendao-gradle-plugin:3.3.0' // add plugin
    }
}

// In your app projects build.gradle file:
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'org.greenrobot.greendao' // apply plugin

dependencies {
    implementation 'org.greenrobot:greendao:3.3.0' // add library
}
