How to avoid using + in version number with SQLiteAssetHelper

Question

I am using the SQLiteAssetHelper class to manage an SQLite database in my app.

To do this I have followed the instructions on how to use SQLiteAssetHelper on GitHub, which is to add compile 'com.readystatesoftware.sqliteasset:sqliteassethelper:+' to my dependencies in my build.gradle file.

However, when I do this, android studio gives me a yellow warning, which says avoid using + in version numbers; can lead to unpredictable and unrepeatable builds avoid using + in version numbers; can lead to unpredictable and unrepeatable builds

Sounds ominous *Gulp*

but this GitHub page, which I will post below, doesn't offer a version number, it just says to add compile 'com.readystatesoftware.sqliteasset:sqliteassethelper:+'

Should I just leave the +? or is there a better way to do this?

Answer 1

If you click on the releases tab , you can see that the most recent release is 2.0.1. It is better that you specify this explicitly in order to have predictable builds.

Answer 2

Use

compile 'com.readystatesoftware.sqliteasset:sqliteassethelper:2.0.1'
