Android Studio 3.1.2 : Failed to resolve: runtime

Question

I have recently updated my Android Studio to 3.1.2 . After the update I tried opening the existing project and was shown multiple gradle errors while compiling the project.

Those errors pointed me to update the 'compile' statement to 'implementation', which I did, still faced some errors which I later solved by updating my google play and firebase sdks to latest version.

Now I have no clue why is my IDE giving the following error (look at the screenshot).

Failed to resolve: runtime

).

Now when I did Build > Clean Project

The error was Could not find runtime.aar (android.arch.lifecycle:runtime:1.0.3). Screen shot

What to do next?

SOLUTION:

1. I updated all my google play services and firebase libs.
2. To solve could not find runtime aar, I just simply arranged the google() on top in repositories.

Answer 1

yes ,

If you are getting error like error run time you can change the position of google() in dependencies in build. gradle.. Like below:

repositories {
    google()
    jcenter()

}
