could not find method minifyEnabled() <p>I'm working on an Android app using Android Studio. When trying to build the app, I get the following error. But I can't figure out how to fix that. All I did before was removing the /build directories from the SVN repository.</p> <blockquote> <p>Error:(16) A problem occurred evaluating project ':app'.</p> <blockquote> <p>Could not find method minifyEnabled() for arguments [false] on BuildTypeDsl_Decorated{name=release, debuggable=false, testCoverageEnabled=false, jniDebugBuild=false, renderscriptDebugBuild=false, renderscriptOptimLevel=3, applicationIdSuffix=null, versionNameSuffix=null, runProguard=false, zipAlign=true, signingConfig=null, embedMicroApp=true}.</p> </blockquote> </blockquote> <p>Here's the part of the gradle file:</p> <pre><code>apply plugin: 'com.android.application' android { compileSdkVersion 18 buildToolsVersion "21.1.1" defaultConfig { applicationId "...xxx..." minSdkVersion 18 targetSdkVersion 18 versionCode 1 versionName "1.0" } buildTypes { release { minifyEnabled false proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro' } } } </code></pre>
