title: adding url to BuildConfig file from Gradle
body: <p>My BuildConfig is generated by Gradle. One of my strings is a URL. When I try to create an apk, I get an error about the <code>:</code> in the url. Any ideas what I should tell gradle so this works fine?</p>
  
  <p>Here is what I told Gradle:</p>
  
  <pre><code>buildConfigField "String","My_CLOUD_API","http://12.3.456.789:123"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Here is the BuildConfig.java constant that was created</p>
  
  <pre><code>public static final String My_CLOUD_API = http://12.3.456.789:123;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Here is the error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>error: ';' expected
  </code></pre>
