flavorDimensions gradle error - Android Studio 3.0 Canary 1

Question

I would like to upgrade my project to Android Studio 3.0 Canary 1 and the gradle:3.0.0-alpha1 plugin, however I have a problem with the correct definition of flavors for inc

Answer 1

I had a similar issue using Canary 2, but the proposed solution didn't work. Apparently there is a way to use the implementation from a Local library or project:

// This is the old method and no longer works for local
// library modules:
// debugCompile project(path: ':foo', configuration: 'debug')
// releaseCompile project(path: ':foo', configuration: 'release')

// Instead, simply use the following to take advantage of
// variant-aware dependency resolution. You can learn more about
// the 'implementation' configuration in the section about
// new dependency configurations.
implementation project(':foo')
