No such property: ABI for class: org.gradle.api.tasks.OutputFile

Question

I am brand new on development of React Native. I developed a small project and want to have a release APK. Bu I go stack on release build. Can anyone help me? Thank you.

The error is

No such property: ABI for class: org.gradle.api.tasks.OutputFile org.gradle.api.ProjectConfigurationException: A problem occurred configuring project ':app' Caused by: groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: ABI for class: org.gradle.api.tasks.OutputFile

Answer 1

Okay I found the solution. Adding

import com.android.build.OutputFile

to the build.gradle(for app) solved the problem

Answer 2

replace this line in build.gradle(:app)

def abi = output.getFilter(OutputFile.ABI)

with:

def abi = output.getFilter(com.android.build.OutputFile.ABI)
