Messages

API 'variant.getPackageApplication()' is obsolete and has been replaced with 'variant.getPackageApplicationProvider()'.

Description

The Android Studio project can build and run, but got this warning.
This happened when using variant.getPackageApplication() in gradle files. Usually we use it for modifying output apk names.

Dev env

• macOS 11.6 (Big Sur) x64
• Android Studio Bumblebee Patch 1
• Android SDK version 27
• buildTool: 28.0.3
• Android Gradle Plugin: 3.3.3
• Gradle: 4.10.3
• Gradle JDK: corretto-1.8
• Kotlin: 1.3.72

Tried approaches

• Android_Gradle_DSL_3.3
  • change variant.getPackageApplication() to variant.packageApplicationProvider.get()
    => It works!
• Gradle多渠道打包动态修改apk文件名字
  • change variant.getPackageApplication().outputScope.apkDatas.forEach to variant.outputs.all
    => It works!
