The type com.liferay.petra.sql.dsl.query.DSLQuery cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files

I am following a beginner's tutorial from here in order to create a service and then consume it from another module (eg. a Portlet)

Everything goes well until I try to deploy it - there is an error in the generated classes: The type com.liferay.petra.sql.dsl.query.DSLQuery cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files

Solution

  • Locate build.gradle file and add the following dependency:

    compileOnly group: "com.liferay", name: "com.liferay.petra.sql.dsl.api"

    Note: you have to add it in both *-api and *-service build.gradle files
