See the IntelliJ IDEA help [here](https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/help/gradle-2.html):

- Using the default gradle wrapper means that Gradle controls the version number
- Using the customizable gradle wrapper means that IDEA controls the version number of the gradle wrapper.

The version number is stored in `gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties`. So when you choose &quot;using the customizable gradle wrapper&quot; each time you are opening the project with IDEA, it will change the property file to adjust the wrapper version you specified in the IDEA project.

For the sake of repeatable builds (even on your continuous build server which doesn&#39;t run IDEA) let Gradle control the version number and use the default gradle wrapper.

You can set the version number which is used by Gradle inside your `build.gradle` with

	// needs at least Gradle V1.7
	wrapper {
		gradleVersion = &#39;2.2.1&#39;
	}

or

	// works with every Gradle version
	task wrapper(type: Wrapper) {
    	gradleVersion = &#39;2.2.1&#39;
	}

*Remark:* don&#39;t forget that this configuration is only used for the generation of the wrapper. To activate it, you have to execute the generation with `gradlew wrapper`. This tasks updates the `gradle-wrapper.properties` which is used afterwards for all wrapper executions.

Recently I logged into my FB account on Chrome Browser. When I opened the developer tools, I saw something like this:

Now I know that it is possible to add anything to console using the javascript `console.log` function. But my question is -- how did they add style to the text? E.g. &quot;Stop!&quot; is written in red tahoma font with black border and larger size. How did they do it?

Given a standard json string value:

    $jsonString = &#39;{ &quot;baz&quot;: &quot;quuz&quot;, &quot;cow&quot;: [ &quot;moo&quot;, &quot;cud&quot; ], &quot;foo&quot;: &quot;bar&quot; }&#39;

How can I get this to be all pretty with newlines, preferably without brute-force regex?

Simplest method I&#39;ve found so far is:

    $jsonString | ConvertFrom-Json | ConvertTo-Json 

However, that seems kinda silly.

What exactly is the difference between Android Studio&#39;s Gradle options:

`Android Studio-&gt;Preferences-&gt;Gradle`

`Use default gradle wrapper (recommended)` and `Use customizable gradle wrapper`?

Background:

I am working on an Android project in Android Studio and using a Gradle wrapper.

However, when I use the Android Studio settings &quot;Use customizable gradlew wrapper&quot; every time my team members sync the Android Studio project using the gui command:

![enter image description here][1]


  [1]: http://i.stack.imgur.com/dzkmx.png

they find the `gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties` date being updated (and resulting in a extra diffs on the git repo).

Switching to &quot;Use default gradle wrapper&quot; seems to solve this issue.

When I run native code on Android L (Nexus 5), I get the error.

&gt; error: only position independent executables (PIE) are supported.

The same code is executed correctly on my Samsung Galaxy S3 (Android 4.3).

Here is my Application.mk

    APP_PROJECT_PATH := $(call my-dir)/..
    APP_ABI := armeabi
    NDK_TOOLCHAIN_VERSION := 4.7
    APP_PLATFORM := android-9
    APP_GNUSTL_FORCE_CPP_FEATURES := exceptions rtti

However when I replace `    APP_PLATFORM := android-9` with `    APP_PLATFORM := android-16` (As I read [here][1], PIE support appeared in Jelly Been (API level 16)), the same executable file works fine on Android L.

Is there a way to compile native code using `APP_PLATFORM := android-9` and run it on Android L?

I have the following code to load an image in Picasso, using a drawable for the placeholder to display while the image is downloading. What I want though is an animated spinning progress bar style spinner that animates around and around while the image is loading, like I see in most professional apps. Picasso doesn&#39;t seem to support this, only static image drawables. Is there a way to get it working with Picasso or do I have to do something different?

		        	

    Picasso.with(context).load(url)

In my android application, i want to set Notification icons dynamically which will be loaded from URL. For that, i have used `setLargeIcon` property of NotificationBuilder in `receiver`.I reffered many link and tried various solutions but couldn&#39;t get desired output. Though i downloaded that image from url and setting that bitmap in notification, it is not being displayed. Instead it displays the `setSmallIcon` image as large icon. I don&#39;t know where i am going wrong. Here i am posting my code. Please help me to solve this issue. Thank you.

Load image from url in notification Android

The last time I used Android Studio, it generated `.gradle` files with `mavencentral()` buildscript repositories whereas now there&#39;s `jcenter()`. 

Could anyone explain the issues connected with this. Are there any other repos? When should we switch them? What impact do they have on projects, modules, libs? Any other essentials for Android developers?

Who&#39;s responsible for maintaining those repos?

Android buildscript repositories: jcenter VS mavencentral

From the gradle [maven-publish plugin&#39;s documentation](http://www.gradle.org/docs/current/userguide/publishing_maven.html), it&#39;s clear that you set the `groupId` and `version` of the project directly in `build.gradle`:

    group = &#39;org.gradle.sample&#39;
    version = &#39;1.0&#39;

However, the `artifactId` appears to be taken from the name of the folder you are working within.  Is there a way to set the `artifactId` explicitly?

How do you set the maven artifact ID of a Gradle project?

My app has several flavors for several markets in-app-billing systems.

I have a single library which shares the base code for all of my projects. So I decided to add those payment systems to this library as product flavors. 

The question is can android library have product flavors?

If so, how can I include different flavors in respective flavor of the app?

I searched a lot, and I couldn&#39;t find anything about this scenario. The only close thing I found was this in http://tools.android.com/tech-docs/new-build-system/user-guide:

    dependencies {
        flavor1Compile project(path: &#39;:lib1&#39;, configuration: &#39;flavor1Release&#39;)
        flavor2Compile project(path: &#39;:lib1&#39;, configuration: &#39;flavor2Release&#39;)
    }

I changed configuration to different things but it did not work!

I&#39;m using android studio 0.8.2.

Multi flavor app based on multi flavor library in Android Gradle

I&#39;m trying to run a very simple project using Gradle and running into the following error when using the `gradlew run command`:

&gt; could not find or load main class &#39;hello.HelloWorld&#39;

Here is my file structure:

    SpringTest
        -src
            -hello
                -HelloWorld.java
                -Greeter.java
        -build
             -libs
             -tmp
        -gradle
             -wrapper
        -build.gradle
        -gradlew
        -gradlew.bat

I excluded the contents of the libs and tmp folders because I didn&#39;t think that would be relevant information for this issue, but I can add it in if need be.

Here is my build.gradle file:

```groovy
apply plugin: &#39;java&#39;
apply plugin: &#39;application&#39;
apply plugin: &#39;eclipse&#39;

mainClassName = &#39;hello/HelloWorld&#39;

repositories {
    mavenLocal()
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    compile &quot;joda-time:joda-time:2.2&quot;
}

jar {
    baseName = &quot;gs-gradle&quot;
    version = &quot;0.1.0&quot;
}

task wrapper(type: Wrapper) {
    gradleVersion = &#39;1.11&#39;
}
```

Any idea on how to fix this issue?  I&#39;ve tried all sorts of things for the `mainClassName` attribute but nothing seems to work.


Gradle - Could not find or load main class

right now we are in a situation of having build times 2 minutes 30 seconds for very simple change. This (compared to ANT) is amazingly slow and is killing the productivity of the whole team.
I am using Android Studio and using the &quot;Use local gradle distribution&quot;.
I&#39;ve tried to give more memory to gradle:

&gt; org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx6096m -XX:MaxPermSize=2048m -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8

A lot more memory. AND IT IS STILL GIVING ERRORS FOR MEMORY from time to time. 
&gt; Exception in thread &quot;pool-1-thread-1&quot; java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: GC overhead limit exceeded

Amazing. I am using the parallel option and daemon:

&gt; org.gradle.parallel=true 

&gt; org.gradle.daemon=true

It doesn&#39;t really help. 


I&#39;ve put the aforementioned parameters in ~/.gradle/gradle.properties (and I even doubted that Android studio is ignoring that, so I tested - it is not ignoring it).

Still from terminal I get 1:30 build time vs 2:30 in Android Studio, so not sure what is wrong there. 1:30 is STILL CRAZY compared to Ant. If you know what Android Studio is doing (or ignoring, or rewriting as gradle config), I&#39;d be grateful to know.

So just CMD + B (simple compile) is super fast after changes, like 7 seconds.
But when it comes to running the app, it starts the task dexXxxDebug, which is just killing us. 
I&#39;ve tried putting 

&gt; 
    dexOptions {
        preDexLibraries = false
    }

Doesn&#39;t help.

I understand that gradle is probably still not ready for production environments, but I&#39;m starting to regret our decision to move so early to it.
We have lots of modules, which is probably part of the problem, but that was not an issue with Ant. 

Any help appreciated,
Dan

crashlytics developer tools error when building android -gradle project

I have a trivial question that has been bothering me for a while. I tried to google this but no one seems to have the same problem as me or doesn&#39;t see it as an issue. When I make a button in activity_my.xml under layout 

     &lt;Button
        android:layout_width=&quot;wrap_content&quot;
        android:layout_height=&quot;wrap_content&quot;
        android:text=&quot;@string/button_1_name&quot;
        android:id=&quot;@+id/button2&quot;
        android:layout_marginTop=&quot;140dp&quot;
        android:layout_below=&quot;@+id/textView&quot;
        android:layout_centerHorizontal=&quot;true&quot; /&gt;

I get a button that looks like 
![this][Imgur](http://i.imgur.com/IrjrxbT.png)

even though my strings code is:

    &lt;resources&gt;

    &lt;string name=&quot;app_name&quot;&gt;HelloWorld&lt;/string&gt;
    &lt;string name=&quot;hello_world&quot;&gt;Hello world!&lt;/string&gt;
    &lt;string name=&quot;action_settings&quot;&gt;Settings&lt;/string&gt;
    &lt;string name=&quot;button_1_name&quot;&gt;BuTtOn 1&lt;/string&gt;

&lt;/resources&gt;

I know I am definitely missing something small here, but how do I get lower case/upper case working in the button text? 

Thanks!

Android Studio - No JVM Installation found

I am very familiar with the Visual Studio IDE, and am new to working with Android Studio. Is there a way to configure Android Studio so that the keyboard shortcuts that I&#39;m used to from Visual Studio can be used in Android Studio?

How can Visual Studio shortcut keys be used in Android Studio?

I&#39;v just installed Android Studio 0.8.2 for my first time and I have a lot of &quot;Cannot resolve symbol&quot; errors.
The errors occur on both new projects and projects which were exported from eclipse.

JDK version: jdk1.8.0_11

how to overcome Android Studio cannot resolve symbol for android classes

I downloaded the zip file of an Android app on github and I&#39;m trying to run it, but I get a dialog with this message

    app-release-unsigned.apk is not signed. Please configure the signing information for the selected flavor using the Project Structure dialog.

I&#39;m using Android Studio.
What am I supposed to do?

app-release-unsigned.apk is not signed

I want to use Gradle **1.10** instead of **1.9.** I cannot seem to find where to change this.

If I put this:

    task wrapper(type: Wrapper) {
        gradleVersion = &#39;1.10&#39;
    }

in my `build.gradle` and rebuild, it is built with Gradle **1.9** again (so nothing actually happens).

These seem to be all the settings: (and IntelliJ&#39;s [help section about Gradle](http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/webhelp/gradle-2.html) doesn&#39;t help at all :( )

How to change the version of the &#39;default gradle wrapper&#39; in IntelliJ IDEA?

I am trying to understand how the Gradle Wrapper works. In many source repos, I see the following structure:

    projectRoot/
        src/
        build.gradle
        gradle.properties
        settings.gradle
        gradlew
        gradlew.bat
        gradle/
            wrapper/
                gradle-wrapper.jar
                gradle-wrapper.properties
		
My questions:

 1. How/when does one generate `gradlew`/`gradlew.bat`? Are you supposed to generate them only one time when the project is first created, do you generate them every time you commit/push changes? And how are they generated?
 2. Same question above, but for the `gradle/wrapper/*` files (`gradle-wrapper.jar` and `gradle-wrapper.properties`)?
 3. Some times I see other `*.gradle` files inside the project&#39;s `gradle` directory. What are these additional Gradle files and what do they represent/do? Custom plugins?
 4. What is the difference in properties that go into `settings.gradle` vs what should be defined inside `gradle.properties`?

How/when to generate Gradle wrapper files?

I cleaned the whole project by deleting local directories like `~/.gradle`, `~/.m2` `~./android` and `~/workspace/project/.gradle` and chosing `File -&gt; Invalidate Caches / Restart...` in Android Studio.
Now execution of the command `./gradlew` leads to the following output:

    usr$ ./gradlew tasks
    Error: Could not find or load main class org.gradle.wrapper.GradleWrapperMain

Needless to say, I deleted too much, the question is how can it be repaired again? Do you have any ideas how to fix this? 

Could not find or load main class org.gradle.wrapper.GradleWrapperMain

What is the difference between the following statements when issued from a Android Studio Project&#39;s terminal :

&gt; Android_Studio_Project_Path: ./gradlew clean
&gt;
&gt; Android_Studio_Project_Path: ./gradlew clean assembleDebug
&gt;
&gt; Android_Studio_Project_Path: ./gradlew clean :assembleDebug 
&gt;
&gt; and normal Android Studio --&gt; Build --&gt; Clean.

What would be the difference in the internal process.


Difference between clean, gradlew clean
