🔙 Regression

Hello,
After upgrading to latest flutter beta (0.9.4) I cannot run my app which depends on this plugin.
Here is the error occurred when running gradle

           FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

           * What went wrong:
           A problem occurred configuring project ':google_api_availability'.
           > Failed to notify project evaluation listener.
              > java.lang.AbstractMethodError (no error message)

Old (and correct) behavior

No error when running gradle

Current behavior

Reproduction steps

Ah sorry I didn't see there is an update to this plugin. Gonna update & check it again.

skybur on 11 Oct 2018

It still happened after upgrading.

skybur on 11 Oct 2018

@skybur we have just release version 2.1.0 of the Geolocator plugin, this should solve you problem.

mvanbeusekom on 11 Oct 2018

@mvanbeusekom hello, sorry but I tried with a newly created project, added this plugin and the issue still happened. I don't know if the issue caused by this plugin or my environment. Is there anything I can do?

Finally I fixed it by updating my gradle & kotlin version. thank you very much

skybur on 12 Oct 2018

@skybur, happy to hear you managed to solve the problem. I must admit I also ran in to this and indeed could solve it by manually upgrading gradle & kotlin. For other people running into this problem, I simply made the same changes as Flutter did in the following PR: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/22790/files

I bit more background information can be found here: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/22614

mvanbeusekom on 12 Oct 2018

please what is the solution because i have the same problem but when i read all comment above it don't fix my problem.

MrMagloire on 17 Oct 2018

@mrmagloire, you will have to manualy upgrade the Gradle and Kotlin versions in your project. The Flutter template still uses outdated versions, which is fixed in https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/22790/files.

So what you do is open the link and go through each file and make the same change in your code.

Right now i just finished changing all 49 files in Flutter's folder like https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/22790/file and 2 files of my project but i'm having the one and same problem,
capturegeolocator

MrMagloire on 18 Oct 2018

Thanks @mvanbeusekom I fixed it by updating my gradle & kotlin version

For someone just coming in:

build.gradle (app)

ext.kotlin_version = '1.2.71'
and
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'

gradle-wrapper.properties

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.10.2-all.zip

This worked for me, with geolocator: '^2.1.0'

I stumbled on this one after upgrading flutter to 0.11.3, after these changes it works.

I ran into this error after adding geolocator: 2.1.1 package. I went through above suggestions and updated my build gradle, gradle wrapper and kotlin version and tried to sync project but still seeing same error. Since I am using firebase in my project, I read somewhere that the firebase version could be conflicting as well. So would like to know how to go about fixing this issue in my case (from firebase version perspective).

I have same case with you but I had tried to remark
classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version" and kotlin related part,
and used classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.4', it work, not sure why kotlin dependencies crash with google_api_availability ,my gradle wrapper is
