androidgradlebuild.gradle

What issue could I have in Gradle managed device setup?

There was introduced a new feature Gradle managed devices (see for example here: https://developer.android.com/studio/preview/features?hl=fr)

The setup seems to be pretty straightforward, just copy a few lines to the module level build.gradle file and everything should work.

Sadly it is not the case for me and I strive for some advice, please. The code is red and the script doesn't succeed. See my build.gradle.kts file:

The underlined ManagedVirtualDevice shows the following error:

My Android studio version is Android Studio Bumblebee | 2021.1.1 Canary 11 Build #AI-211.7628.21.2111.7676841, built on August 26, 2021.

Syncing Gradle shows this:

Solution

  • Just ran into the same issue - you need to instantiate a ManagedVirtualDevice object and configure it, before adding it to your devices list:

    import com.android.build.gradle.internal.dsl.ManagedVirtualDevice

testOptions {
    devices {
        add(
            ManagedVirtualDevice("pixel2api30").apply {
                device = "Pixel 2"
                apiLevel = 30
                systemImageSource = "aosp-atd"
                abi = "x86"
            }
        )
    }
}

    Note that the import is subtly different from what Google's documentation says - in their example they're passing the interface, not an implementation.
