无法为org.gradle.api.Project类型的项目'：core'设置未知属性'transitive'

Question

I'm working on a java project that uses an old gradle version (1.12). Now I'm upgrading gradle to a newer version (4.4) to be able to use Kotlin. I've been resolving the dependencies problems and everything seems to be ok excepting a property called transitive which appear to be valid on version 1.12.

This is the piece of code giving me troubles:

dependencies {
  compile project(':core') {   
    transitive = false //Here
  }
  // bunch of dependencies below
}

Any ideas of how to get the same result in a newer version of Gradle?

Answer 1

Try this..

compile(project(:your-library-name)) { transitive=true }

Hope it helps.
