Gradle Read Me
2021-07-17 - Updating gradle to v7.x
- Had installed java 16 so cannot run the current gradle version which is v5.6.4
- Must use -Dorg.gradle.java.home="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_291" to force gradle to use java 1.8
To upgrade gradle:
./gradlew wrapper --gradle-version 6.0 -Dorg.gradle.java.home="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_291" ./gradlew --version -Dorg.gradle.java.home="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_291" :: Will actually install the new version gradlew build (as normal):: Will build project with the new version to ensure all is good. If build is good, then you can try to upgrade to the next version.
Upgraded Gradle to v7.1.1:
./gradlew wrapper --gradle-version 6.0 -Dorg.gradle.java.home="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_291" ./gradlew --version -Dorg.gradle.java.home="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_291" :: Will actually install the new version ./gradlew8.bat
