bolts.Task not found

[riccardoch]

I've updated Parse version (1.6.4), but when I try to compile I get this error:

Error:(59, 68) error: cannot access Task
class file for bolts.Task not found

Have you tried a clean build?

Additionally, the current build is: 1.16.5, please try that

[riccardoch]

With 1.6.5 version the compilation fails, for this reason I tried with 1.6.4, but the only one version that is correctly running on my project is 1.6.3 (except for push notifications on Android Oreo).

Same error, back to 1.6.3

I suspect the upgrade to Gradle 4 stopped publishing the bolts dependencies

https://github.com/parse-community/Parse-SDK-Android/blob/master/Parse/build.gradle#L59

[rogerhu]

Seems that way:

https://oss.jfrog.org/artifactory/oss-snapshot-local/com/parse/parse-android/1.16.5-SNAPSHOT/parse-android-1.16.5-20180113.212513-1.pom

Adding:

api 'com.parse.bolts:bolts-tasks:1.4.0'

in the gradle dependencies everything works.

Thanks @rogerhu

The maven-publish plugin doesn't publish dependencies.

Gradle4 appears to have broken the workaround I had:

If we are just deploying to bintray now, we could switch to using this plugin:

I would also throw in once again advocating for using jitpack as the official distribution source. It makes things super easy.

[rogerhu]

Does it generate the correct POM file? Let's switch if it does.

[rogerhu]

Found the workaround: https://github.com/bintray/gradle-bintray-plugin/pull/202/files

[Jawnnypoo]

Ahh good, nice find
