What version of Gradle is used in the book? I’m new, I don’t want to learn older versions of Gradle.
“Gradle in Action” is based on Gradle 1.7 (see checked-in wrapper in the source code repository). However, most examples in the book should work with Gradle 2.2.x.
As far as I know, there’s no book on the market at the moment that is based on Gradle 2.2.x. Given that Gradle usually releases a new version every 6-8 weeks, it’s impossible to keep up with the latest version of a technology. You will need to settle on a version to be able to finish the content.
Purchased the book a few weeks ago. I am learning a lot from your book, thank you!
