Gradle dependencies - replace one module with another

Question

In my project gradle shows dependencies:

com.google.guava:guava:19.0 -> 20.0-rc1
com.google.guava:guava-jdk5:17.0

Afaik gradle chooses the latest version of dependencies with the same name, that's why v19 is changed to v20. Is there a way to make gradle use guava instead of guava-jdk5?

Answer 1

Yes, see Gradle documentation on dependency management and module replacement. Try this code:

dependencies {
    modules {
        module("com.google.guava:guava-jdk5") {
            replacedBy("com.google.guava:guava")
        }
    }
}
