BuildConfig gives build error since gradle 0.7

[Christoffer Hirsimaa]

I earlier had this in my build file:

defaultConfig {

        minSdkVersion 14

        targetSdkVersion 19

        buildConfig "public static final String COMMIT_HASH = \""+getGitHash()+"\";"

}

So I can put my git hash in the application. Now it gives this error:

> Could not find method buildConfig() for arguments [public static final String COMMIT_HASH = "1.0-sprint7-56-g2ba6a8a";] on ProductFlavorDsl_Decorated{name=main, minSdkVersion=14, targetSdkVersion=19, renderscriptTargetApi=-1, renderscriptSupportMode=null, renderscriptNdkMode=null, versionCode=-1, versionName=null, packageName=null, testPackageName=null, testInstrumentationRunner=null, testHandleProfiling=null, testFunctionalTest=null, signingConfig=null, resConfig=null}.

What is wrong with this now?

From the notes:

• Build config improvements and DSL changes.
• buildConfigLine is replaced by buildConfigField
• Only one field per property
• expects 3 values, type, name, value.
• This allows overriding a value in flavor or build type.
• See "basic" sample.

So you'd need to do something like:

buildConfigField String, "COMMIT_HASH", getGitHash()

Almost right. In my project the following works:

buildConfigField "String", "SERVER_URL", "\"${url}\""

[Michael Barany]

Yup, "String" in quotes was required for it to work for me.

Ah thanks! Tried a few different versions but couldn't refer to BuildConfigLine either since I have seen that before.

buildConfigField "String", "SERVER_URL", "\"${url}\""

Worked great! :)
