buildTypes cannot be applied to groovy.lang.Closure
android-gradle-plugin, android-studio
Solution
For me the problem was not solved by applying the above solution. Instead I had to go to the settings within Android Studio and select "Use gradle wrapper":
In Android Studio select: File\Settings\Build, Execution, Deployment\Build tools\Gradle
(Mac Users: Android Studio\Preferences...\Build, Execution, Deployment\Build tools\Gradle )
Mark: Use default gradle wrapper (default)
This removed all 'cannot be applied to '(groovy.lang.Closure') warnings in the build files.
Problem
I'm getting this warning in my project gradle file: Warning:(16, 5) 'buildTypes' cannot be applied to '(groovy.lang.Closure< com.android.build.gradle.internal.dsl.BuildType>)' My buildTypes section is: ``` buildTypes { debug { debuggable true } release { minifyEnabled true proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-project.txt' } } ``` I'm currently using Android Studio 1.1.0, compileSdkVersion 22, buildToolsVersion 22.0.0, and targetSdkVersion 22. I tried backing down to 21 but was still getting the warning. What causes this warning & how is it fixed?
