Thanks for the tip. I was running the stable version alright. Trying the v9preview3 I get: Could not compile build file 'build.gradle'. Cause: startup failed: build_gradle_99c08cdfe2094666d2bf38180e945a88: 1: expecting EOF, found 'apply' @ line 1, column 30. apply plugin: 'eclipse' apply plugin: 'eclipse'
