After upgrading to Gradle 2.0: Could not find property 'Compile' on root project

Question

To avoid warnings regarding special characters when building my Java source code, I put this line in my gradle.build which worked fine before upgrading to Gradle 2.0:

tasks.withType(Compile) { options.encoding = "UTF-8" }

After upgrading, this fails with the following error:

Could not find property 'Compile' on root project

How can I fix that?

Answer 1

Changing the line to

tasks.withType(JavaCompile) { options.encoding = "UTF-8" }

fixed the issue.

Answer 2

For Groovy based projects. It'd be:

tasks.withType(GroovyCompile) {
    options.debug = true
}
