Walkthrough

The Gradle wrapper distribution URL now selects Gradle 9.8.2 instead of Gradle 8.2. The binary distribution type remains unchanged.

Changes: Gradle Wrapper Update

Layer / File(s) Summary
Update wrapper distribution
gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties
The wrapper distribution URL selects Gradle 9.8.2 instead of Gradle 8.2. The binary distribution type is unchanged.

Priority: Low

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~3 minutes

Change: Other

Possibly related issues

  • Issue 5 tracks the same Gradle wrapper update from 8.2 to 9.8.2 and reports a wrapper update warning.

Suggested reviewers: darkseidam

Merge Risk: High · up to 3de7b

This update moves the build to Gradle 9.8.2 but leaves the Android and Kotlin build plugins on versions that Gradle 9 does not support. Android builds are likely to fail until the wrapper is rolled back or those plugins are upgraded in the same change.

Security architecture risk: Low · up to 3de7b

The upgrade preserves the download endpoint and existing build permissions, with no demonstrated expansion of access. However, compatibility with the older Android and Kotlin plugins remains unresolved, including whether signed release builds continue to work.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The directly affected scope is build environments executing this wrapper. Where release-signing material is available to those environments, the newly selected runtime participates in that existing privileged build context. The inspected change establishes no additional tenant, service, or credential grant.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • inferred — The change replaces executable build tooling within the existing distribution trust boundary rather than introducing a new download authority. The unchanged HTTPS endpoint and configuration are counterevidence to an authority expansion, but do not independently verify the downloaded runtime's integrity or behavior.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Consider pinning the distribution's SHA-256 checksum using an independently verified upstream value. This would strengthen the existing download boundary; its absence is not a newly introduced finding.

<title>Upgrading to Gradle 9.0.0</title>

<excerpt>citeturn0search0 [wordlim: 200] Crawled: last week; For best compatibility, such plugins should be used with Gradle 9.0.0 or later. ... Starting with Gradle 9.0.0, the minimum supported Android Gradle Plugin version is 8.4.0. ...   * `org.gradle.kotlin.dsl.SettingsScriptApi#javaexec(Action)`

## Plugin changes

### Plugins written with the Kotlin DSL require Gradle &gt;= 8.11

When building and publishing plugins using the Kotlin DSL on Gradle 9.x, those plugins are only usable on Gradle 8.11 or newer. This is because Gradle 8.11 is the first release that embeds Kotlin 2.0 or higher, which is required to interpret Kotlin metadata version 2.

If your plugin must support Gradle versions older than 8.11, build the plugin with Gradle 8.x.

Downgrading the Kotlin target under Gradle 9.x is not a workaround: Gradle 9.x embeds Kotlin 2.2, which rejects `languageVersion` and `apiVersion` values below 1.8 and always emits Kotlin metadata version 2.

When building with Gradle 8.x, you can additionally target an earlier Kotlin language version to broaden consumer compatibility. For example, to support Gradle 6.8 and newer, target Kotlin 1.7:

build.gradle.kts
    
    `import org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.dsl.KotlinVersion
    import org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.tasks.KotlinCompile
    
    plugins {
        `kotlin-dsl`
    }
    
    tasks.withType&lt;KotlinCompile&gt;().configureEach {
        compilerOptions {
            languageVersion = KotlinVersion.KOTLIN_1_7
            apiVersion = KotlinVersion.KOTLIN_1_7
        }
    }`

 | The example above must be built with Gradle 7.x or 8.x. On Gradle 9.x the build fails because Kotlin 2.2 rejects `languageVersion` values below 1.8.

Refer to Gradle’s compatibility matrix for details on which Kotlin version is embedded in each Gradle release.

 | Plugins written using the Kotlin DSL and published with Gradle 7.x or 8.x remain compatible with Gradle 6.8 and newer.

### Plugins written with the Groovy DSL require Gradle &gt;= 7.0

Plugins authored using the Groovy DSL and built with Gradle 9.x.x require Gradle 7.0 or newer to run. This is because Gradle 7.0 introduced Groovy 3.0 support, and Gradle 9 embeds Groovy 4.0.

Since Gradle 9.0.0 uses Groovy 4.0 internally, plugins built with it may not behave as expected when run on older Gradle versions. For best compatibility, such plugins should be used with Gradle 9.0.0 or later.

 | Plugins written with the Groovy DSL and published using Gradle 7.x or 8.x remain compatible with Gradle 5.0 and above.

### Lowest supported Kotlin Gradle Plugin version change

Starting with Gradle 9.0.0, the minimum supported Kotlin Gradle Plugin version is 2.0.0. Earlier versions are no longer supported as they rely on Gradle APIs that have been removed.

For Gradle 8.x, the minimum supported version was 1.6.10.

### Lowest supported Android Gradle Plugin version change

Starting with Gradle 9.0.0, the minimum supported Android Gradle Plugin version is 8.4.0. Earlier versions are no longer supported as they rely on Gradle APIs that have been removed.

For Gradle 8.x, the minimum supported version was 7.3.0.

### Lowest supported Gradle Enterprise Plugin version change

Starting with Gradle 9.0.0, the minimum supported Gradle Enterprise Plugin version is 3.13.1. Earlier versions are no longer supported as they rely on Gradle APIs that have been removed.

When configuring your project, check the Kotlin Gradle plugin (KGP) compatibility with available Gradle versions. In the following table, there are the minimum and maximum fully supported versions of Gradle and Android Gradle plugin (AGP):

KGP version  | Gradle min and max versions  | AGP min and max versions
--- | --- | ---
2.4.20–2.4.21  | 7.6.3–9.7.0  | 8.5.2–9.3.1
2.4.0–2.4.10  | 7.6.3–9.5.0  | 8.5.2–9.1.0
2.3.20–2.3.21  | 7.6.3–9.3.0  | 8.2.2–9.0.0
2.3.10  | 7.6.3–9.0.0  | 8.2.2–9.0.0
2.3.0  | 7.6.3–9.0.0  | 8.2.2–8.13.0
2.2.20–2.2.21  | 7.6.3–8.14  | 7.3.1–8.11.1
2.2.0–2.2.10  | 7.6.3–8.14  | 7.3.1–8.10.0
2.1.20–2.1.21  | 7.6.3–8.12.1  | 7.3.1–8.7.2

2.0.20–2.0.21  | 6.8.3–8.8*  | 7.1.3–8.5
2.0.0  | 6.8.3–8.5  | 7.1.3–8.3.1
1.9.20–1.9.25  | 6.8.3–8.1.1  | 4.2.2–8.1.0

*Kotlin 2.0.20–2.0.21 and Kotlin 2.1.0–2.1.10 are fully compatible with Gradle up to 8.6. Gradle versions 8.7–8.10 are also supported, with only one exception: If you use the Kotlin Multiplatform Gradle plugin, you may see deprecation warnings in your multiplatform projects calling the `withJava()` function in the JVM target. For more information, see Java source sets created by default.

You can also use Gradle and AGP versions up to the latest releases, but if you do, keep in mind that you might encounter deprecation warnings or some new features might not work.

For example, the Kotlin Gradle plugin and the `kotlin-multiplatform` plugin 2.4.21 require the minimum Gradle version of 7.6.3 for your project to compile.

Similarly, the maximum fully supported version is 9.7.0. It doesn&#39;t have deprecated Gradle methods and properties, and supports all the current Gradle features.

### Earlier KGP versions

KGP version  | Gradle min and max versions  | AGP min and max versions
--- | --- | ---
1.9.0–1.9.10  | 6.8.3–7.6.0  | 4.2.2–7.4.0
1.8.20–1.8.22  | 6.8.3–7.6.0  | 4.1.3–7.4.0
1.8.0–1.8.11  | 6.8.3–7.3.3  | 4.1.3–7.2.1
1.7.20–1.7.22  | 6.7.1–7.1.1  | 3.6.4–7.0.4
1.7.0–1.7.10  | 6.7.1–7.0.2  | 3.4.3–7.0.2
1.6.20–1.6.21  | 6.1.1–7.0.2  | 3.4.3–7.0.2

### Kotlin Gradle plugin data in a project

By default, the Kotlin Gradle plugin stores persistent project-specific data at the root of the project, in the `.kotlin` directory.

Do not commit the `.kotlin` directory to version control. For example, if you are using Git, add `.kotlin` to your project&#39;s `.gitignore` file.

There are properties you can add to the `gradle.properties` file of your project to configure this behavior:

Gradle property  | Description
--- | ---
`kotlin.project.persistent.dir`  | Configures the location where your project-level data is stored. Default: `&lt;project-root-directory&gt;/.kotlin`
`kotlin.project.persistent.dir.gradle.disableWrite`  | Controls whether writing Kotlin data to the `.gradle` directory is disabled (for backward compatibility with older IDEA versions). Default: false

1.2.0 - 1.3.1  | 2.2.1 - 2.9
1.0.0 - 1.1.3  | 2.2.1 - 2.3

You can specify the Gradle version in either the File &gt; Project Structure &gt; Project menu in Android Studio, or update your Gradle version using the command line. The preferred way is to use the Gradle Wrapper command line tool, which updates the `gradlew` scripts. The following example sets the Gradle version to 9.6.0 using the Gradle Wrapper. Note, you need to run this command twice to upgrade both Gradle and the Gradle Wrapper itself (for more information, see Upgrading the Gradle Wrapper).
    
    `gradle wrapper --gradle-version 9.6.0
    `

However this might fail in some cases, for example if you&#39;ve just updated AGP and it&#39;s no longer compliant with the current Gradle version. In this case, you need to edit the Gradle distribution reference in the `gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties` file. The following example sets the Gradle version to 9.6.0 in the `gradle-wrapper.properties` file.

## Android

Gradle is tested with Android Gradle Plugin 9.0 through 9.4.0-alpha03. Alpha and beta versions may or may not work.

## Target Platforms

Gradle supports a defined set of platform targets, which are combinations of:

  * Operating system and version

  * Architecture

  * File system watching compatibility

The following table lists the officially supported platforms for Gradle:

Table 3. Supported Platforms
OS  | Architecture
--- | ---
Windows 10  | `AMD64`
Windows 11  | `AMD64`, `AArch64`
Ubuntu 22  | `AMD64`, `AArch64`
macOS 13+  | `AMD64`, `AArch64`
Alpine 3.20  | `AMD64`
CentOS Stream 9  | `AMD64`

 | Currently, all Gradle tests run with the default file-systems of the platform, i.e. `ext4` for Ubuntu, Amazon Linux and CentOS, `NTFS` for Windows, and `APFS` for macOS.

Platforms not listed above may work with Gradle but are not actively tested.

# Upgrading to Gradle 9.0.0

This chapter provides the information you need to migrate your Gradle 8.14.5 builds to Gradle 9.0.0. For migrating within Gradle 8.x, see the older migration guide first.

We recommend the following steps for all users:

  1. Try running `gradle help --scan` and view the deprecations view of the generated Build Scan.

Image: Deprecations View in a Build Scan

This lets you see any deprecation warnings that apply to your build.

Alternatively, you can run `gradle help --warning-mode=all` to see the deprecations in the console, though it may not report as much detailed information.

  2. Update your plugins.

Some plugins may break with a new major version of Gradle, as these releases can remove public APIs. Using the latest version of a plugin increases the likelihood that it is already compatible with the new major Gradle version.

  3. Run `gradle :wrapper --gradle-version 9.0.0` to update the project to 9.0.0.

  4. Try to run the project and debug any errors using the Troubleshooting Guide.

## Runtime requirements and DSL changes

### Java Virtual Machine (JVM) 17 or higher is required

Gradle 9.0.0 requires a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) version 17 or higher to run the Gradle Daemon. This is a breaking change from previous versions, which supported JVM 8 and higher.

Your build can still target lower JVM versions using Toolchains for compilation, testing and other workers (Checkstyle, Javadoc, etc).

The Gradle wrapper and command-line launcher can run with JVM 8, but it still requires a newer JVM to start the build. For more, see the Running Gradle on older JVMs section below.

Gradle Tooling API and TestKit remain compatible with JVM 8 and higher.

#### Upgrade to Kotlin 2.2.0

Gradle now embeds Kotlin 2.2.0, upgrading from the previously embedded version 2.0.21.

For full details and potential breaking changes, consult the Kotlin release notes.

#### Kotlin DSL and plugins use the Kotlin language version 2.2

## Plugin changes

### Plugins written with the Kotlin DSL require Gradle &gt;= 8.11

When building and publishing plugins using the Kotlin DSL on Gradle 9.x, those plugins are only usable on Gradle 8.11 or newer. This is because Gradle 8.11 is the first release that embeds Kotlin 2.0 or higher, which is required to interpret Kotlin metadata version 2.

If your plugin must support Gradle versions older than 8.11, build the plugin with Gradle 8.x.

Downgrading the Kotlin target under Gradle 9.x is not a workaround: Gradle 9.x embeds Kotlin 2.2, which rejects `languageVersion` and `apiVersion` values below 1.8 and always emits Kotlin metadata version 2.

When building with Gradle 8.x, you can additionally target an earlier Kotlin language version to broaden consumer compatibility. For example, to support Gradle 6.8 and newer, target Kotlin 1.7:

build.gradle.kts
    
    `import org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.dsl.KotlinVersion
    import org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.tasks.KotlinCompile
    
    plugins {
        `kotlin-dsl`
    }
    
    tasks.withType&lt;KotlinCompile&gt;().configureEach {
        compilerOptions {
            languageVersion = KotlinVersion.KOTLIN_1_7
            apiVersion = KotlinVersion.KOTLIN_1_7
        }
    }`

 | The example above must be built with Gradle 7.x or 8.x. On Gradle 9.x the build fails because Kotlin 2.2 rejects `languageVersion` values below 1.8.

Refer to Gradle’s compatibility matrix for details on which Kotlin version is embedded in each Gradle release.

# Android Gradle Plugin 8.1.0 (July 2023) Stay organized with collections Save and categorize content based on your preferences.

Android Gradle plugin 8.1.0 is a major release that includes a variety of new features and improvements.

## Compatibility

 | Minimum version  | Default version  | Notes
--- | --- | --- | ---
Gradle  | 8.0  | 8.0  | To learn more, see updating Gradle.
SDK Build Tools  | 33.0.1  | 33.0.1  | Install or configure SDK Build Tools.
NDK  | N/A  | 25.1.8937393  | Install or configure a different version of the NDK.
JDK  | 17  | 17  | To learn more, see setting the JDK version.

## Kotlin DSL is the default for build configuration

New projects now use the Kotlin DSL (`build.gradle.kts`) by default for build configuration. This offers a better editing experience than the Groovy DSL (`build.gradle`) with syntax highlighting, code completion, and navigation to declarations. Note that if you&#39;re using AGP 8.1 and the Kotlin DSL for build configuration, you should use Gradle 8.1 for the best experience. </excerpt>

<excerpt>citeturn0search1 [wordlim: 200] Crawled: last week; ### Potential breaking changes ... The most common case is Android Gradle Plugin (AGP) 8.x, which relied on these internal classes. ... #### The `java-gradle-plugin` plugin now adds the `gradleApi()` dependency to the `compileOnlyApi` scope ... This might break projects that were implicitly relying on the `gradleApi()` being on the compilation or runtime classpath. ... In Gradle 9.3.0, `Project` instances (for the same logical project) can be different with respect to the referential equality, even if obtained within the same context, e.g., in the same build script. This change is necessary to facilitate future performance improvements of Gradle.

## Upgrading from 9.5.0 and earlier

### Potential breaking changes

#### Plugins relying on removed Problems API internals are no longer compatible with Gradle 9.6

Several internal classes of the Problems API, such as `org.gradle.api.problems.internal.InternalProblems`, have been removed in Gradle 9.6. Plugins that bound to these internal classes directly fail at build time with an error mentioning the removed type.

The most common case is Android Gradle Plugin (AGP) 8.x, which relied on these internal classes. To resolve this, upgrade to AGP 9.x, which only uses the public Gradle API and fully supports Gradle 9.6. If the failure comes from another plugin, update it to a version that no longer uses Gradle internal APIs, or stay on Gradle 9.5 until such a version is available.

#### Concurrency primitives can no longer be serialized by the Configuration Cache

Configuration Cache serialization now reports a clear problem when attempting to serialize most of Java’s standard concurrency primitives. </excerpt>

## Update Gradle

When you update Android Studio, you may receive a prompt to also update Gradle to the latest available version. You can choose to accept the update or manually specify a version based on your project&#39;s build requirements.

The following table lists which version of Gradle is required for each version of the Android Gradle plugin. For the best performance, you should use the latest possible version of both Gradle and the plugin.

Plugin version  | Minimum required Gradle version

# Gradle sync fails due to AGP 8.x incompatibility with Gradle 9.6.1 after gradle wrapper upgrade

IDE version, OS:

Build #IU-262.8665.176, MAC OS

Pre-condition:

  * Android plugin is enabled
  * Gradle wrapper: 9.5.0
  * Android Gradle Plugin: 8.12.0

STR:

  1. Clone project https://github.com/liutikas/your-build-your-rules
  2. Click at `New Minor Gradle Version Available` in Sync window
  3. Click at the quickfix `Switch to Gradle 9.6.1 and re-sync`

Actual result:

idea.log
Gradle sync fails with a application error mentioning `org.gradle.api.problems.internal.InternalProblems`

Failure excerpt:
    
    `FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
    
    * Where:
    Build file &#39;/Users/Karina.Kazaryan/IdeaProjects/GradleBasedProjects/your-build-your-rules/build.gradle.kts&#39; line: 17
    
    * What went wrong:
    Failed to apply plugin &#39;com.android.internal.application&#39;.

Use a Gradle 9-compatible Android toolchain.

build.gradle.kts pins AGP 8.1.4 and Kotlin Gradle Plugin 1.8.21, while the wrapper selects Gradle 9.8.2. Gradle 9 requires AGP 8.4.0 or newer and Kotlin Gradle Plugin 2.0.0 or newer. Gradle 9.6 also removes internal APIs used by AGP 8.x, so Gradle 9.6+ requires AGP 9.x.

This combination can fail during project configuration and Android builds. It does not imply that every Gradle command fails. Keep Gradle 8.2, or upgrade AGP to a Gradle 9.8.2-compatible 9.x release and update Kotlin tooling to a compatible version.

Review comment at @gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties at line 4:
Update the Gradle wrapper’s distributionUrl to use Gradle 8.2, keeping it
compatible with the existing AGP 8.1.4 and Kotlin Gradle Plugin 1.8.21 versions;
do not upgrade the Android toolchain as part of this change.
