title: Set project dependencies with Gradle
body: <p>I am using Gradle for Android with Eclipse (NOT Android Studio and please do not suggest to change the IDE).</p>
  
  <p>My <code>project.properties</code> file got this line:</p>
  
  <pre><code>android.library.reference.1=..\\google-play-services_lib
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I tried adding this line to build.gradle:</p>
  
  <pre><code>compile project('..\\google-play-services_lib')
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When building the project I get this error: </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Project with path '..\google-play-services_lib' could not be found in root project 'myProject'.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>What am I doing wrong?</p></li>
  <li><p>How do I define in the build.gradle the jars I've added to the build path?</p></li>
  </ol>
