\build\intermediates\res\resources-anzhi-debug-stripped.ap_' specified for property 'resourceFile' does not exist

Question

I updated Android Studio to version 2.0. The build failed and also takes longer than Android Studio version 1.5 to build. Every time I run my application, I clean and reload

Answer 1

Probably you are shrinking the resources while avoiding minifying:

minifyEnabled false
shrinkResources true

If you want to shrink the resources, you have to enable minifying:

minifyEnabled true
shrinkResources true

Older versions of Build Tools were ignoring this issue, but it started throwing compilation issues on Build Tools 2.2.3
