Question

When i am trying to compile a imported project from github, my gradle build always fails with the following exeption.

Unable to find method \'org.gradle.api.         


        

Answer 1

I fix same as this error by add classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1' in the build.gradle project

buildscript {

    repositories {
        maven { url 'https://maven.google.com' }
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'

        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
    }
}
