Conflict with Huawei HMS plugin in android with gradle 7.0.0

Question

I'm getting this error with Gradle 7.0 while it was working fine for 6.8.3

agcp-gradle-7-error

AGCPlugin

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• What went wrong: A problem was found with the configuration of task ':app:processDebugAGCPlugin' (type 'AGCPluginTask').

  • Type 'AGCPluginTask' property 'randomEncryptComponent' of type boolean shouldn't be annotated with @Optional.

    Reason: Properties of primitive type cannot be optional.

    Possible solutions:

    1. Remove the @Optional annotation.
    2. Use the java.lang.Boolean type instead.

    Please refer to https://docs.gradle.org/7.0/userguide/validation_problems.html#cannot_use_optional_on_primitive_types for more details about this problem.

Answer 1

I no longer get any errors with:

classpath 'com.huawei.agconnect:agcp:1.5.2.300'

and

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-7.0.2-all.zip

Answer 2

Currently Gradle 7.0 is not supported. As I hear, it will be supported at the end of June.
