I just downloaded the latest version of Studio (6.3.4) and the Platform (6.3.6). I took an existing project and changed it’s platform level in the Project Properties to 6.3.6.
Now, when I go into Intellij Idea, I get many errors. Going into the Module Properties on my web module, I see that all the cuba jars are still 6.3.5. I am also seeing many dependency errors in my core, global, gui, and web modules. They still say “Gradle: com.haulmont.cuba:cuba-core:6.3.5”.
I tried resetting my project back to 6.3.5, but I got an error :
:ideaModule
:ideaProject

Changing back to 6.3.6 from 6.3.5 gives this:
:ideaModule
:ideaProject

I think I managed to resolve this. I opened the Gradle Window in Intellij Idea and executed Refresh. My projects now seem to have cuba 6.3.6 listed in the dependencies.
It seems that gradle idea task that updates IDEA project files fails on your project for some reason. Do you use Gradle which is downloaded by Studio or a custom installation?
To be honest, I’m not sure. I don’t really know much about gradle.
When I run gradle -version from the command line, I get 3.2.1. If I go into settings in idea and search for gradle, it says that gradle home is /usr/lib/gradle/3.2.1.
So, I guess this means I’m using 3.2.1 all around and not the one installed with Studio, right?
Not necessarily. By default, Studio 6.3 downloads and uses Gradle 2.13, but you can specify your own installation of Gradle in Studio Server window > Advanced. So the question is, have you done it?
Strangely, I don’t see a Gradle option in my Cuba Studio 6.3.4 Project Properties->Advanced screen. And, on the main screen, I see an option for the Platform version but not for the Gradle version. I also don’t see anything on the Help->Settings screen.
The only place I can find anything Gradle related is in IDEA and in the build.gradle file. In IDEA, File->Settings->Build, Execution, Deployment->Gradle. There is a setting there for Gradle Home and mine is set for /usr/lib/gradle/3.2.1 (the one I installed).
Is the problem the mismatch between the IDEA settings and the Studio Server settings?
No, IDEA settings do not affect regeneration of project files. We normally do not use IDEA facilities for Gradle at all. When you create/update IDEA project files via Studio menu or in command line by gradle idea, Gradle creates all necessary information for IDEA, and nothing is required from IDEA-Gradle integration. It’s like a one-way process: from your build.gradle to the IDE.
I did NOT change that setting. It is blank.
