Answer 1

This a bug in Gradle 1.1.0 plugin as described here: Issue 152811. Fix is already released

Solution is to change plugin version to 1.1.1 or higher (currently available version is 1.1.2). classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.1.2'

Update

There is another similar bug Android Gradle Plugin 1.1.0 breaks Javadoc tasks which is fixed in 1.2.2 version.

Answer 2

i find some solution try this if work

do change in gradle file

task androidJavadocs(type: Javadoc) {
source = android.sourceSets.main.java.srcDirs
ext.androidJar = "${android.sdkDirectory}/platforms/${android.compileSdkVersion}/android.jar"
classpath += files(ext.androidJar)
}

Above code replace by this one

task javadoc(type: Javadoc) {
    source = android.sourceSets.main.java.srcDirs
    classpath += project.files(android.getBootClasspath().join(File.pathSeparator))
}
