I installed Android Studio and when I try to import a project from gradle this resolve error shows up:
Unable to load class 'org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.typehandling.ShortTypeHandling'.
I deleted the files in my Users .gradle folder and tried different gradle versions. I don't know how to fix this.
This page might help solve the problem. What they say is:
So we leveraged this version to add a new artifact, named groovy-backports-compat23. This artifact shouldn’t be necessary for most of you, but if you face an error like:
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.typehandling.ShortTypeHandling at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:372)
in your project, then it means that a class has been compiled with Groovy 2.3+ but that you are trying to use it with an older version of Groovy. By adding this jar on classpath, you give a chance to your program to run. This may be particularily interesting for Gradle users that want to use a plugin built on Gradle 2+ on older versions of Gradle and face this error. Adding the following line to their build files should help:
buildscript { // ... dependencies { classpath 'some plugin build on gradle 2' classpath 'org.codehaus.groovy:groovy-backports-compat23:2.3.5' } }
Note that for now, this jar only contains the ShortTypeHandlingClass. Future versions may include more. - See more at: http://glaforge.appspot.com/article/groovy-2-3-5-out-with-upward-compatibility#sthash.mv7Y8XQv.dpuf
I can fix this error message using these three methods.
build.gradle (Project:xxxxx)
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.2.3'
}
}
allprojects {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
}
build.gradle (Module:app)
apply plugin: 'android'
android {
compileSdkVersion 22
buildToolsVersion "21.1.2"
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion 11
targetSdkVersion 19
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
}
buildTypes {
release {
minifyEnabled false
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
}
}
}
dependencies {
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:+'
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
}
I had the same problem. I ran gradle from command line and that did work. After that, I found File -> Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Build Tools -> Gradle. There "Use local gradle distribution" was active. Changed it to "Use default gradle wrapper (recommended)" and it worked.
