I'm working project which requires another project's .jar file. I'm using android studio 2.3.3. Following is code to generate .jar file
task clearJar(type: Delete) {
delete 'build/outputs/NAME.jar'}
task makeJar(type: Copy) {
from('build/intermediates/bundles/release/')
into('build/outputs/')
include('classes.jar')
rename ('classes.jar', 'NAME.jar')}
makeJar.dependsOn(clearJar, build)
When i compile a project and call makeJar it executes successful, but I'm unable to find NAME.jar at desired location. .aar file is generated, but i want .jar file. Please help me to find a way.
I was facing the same problem earlier, I resolved it by clearing invalidated cache and restart studio.
Go to file -> Invalidate caches and restart. It will take time.
