created issue #1

Aug 17, 2022 02:13PM

Gradle is removing some @Deprecated methods from the org.gradle.api.reporting.ConfigurableReport class in Gradle 8.0. One method that is remaining is setDestination(File), which is still used by tasks created by AGP. All of Gradle's internal implementation classes for this interface (anything which ultimately extends org.gradle.api.reporting.internal.SimpleReport) will begin producing nagging deprecation warnings when this method is called.

Per the javadoc on that method, please switch to using the outputLocation property to avoid these warnings and prepare for it's removal in Gradle 9.0.

Is this fixed? I'm still seeing this issue with AGP 8.1.0-beta01 + Gradle 8.1

Due to this bug in CI we hit configuration cache invalidation 100% of the time. Can we make sure the fix lands soon? And especially before 8.1.0 stable.

Marked as fixed.

Aurimas, is this 8.1 blocking for Androidx? If not, feel free to remove the "Blocking release" label.
