In my Android Studio project I have a small script, which creates from different Language Resources, strings.xml for Android and .lproj for iOS.
Until now, everything worked fine but then I upgraded to MacOS High Sierra. And now in my Android Studio project the gradle-Task which creates my String values fails cause it could not open the values-da Folder while moving the string.xml into the res/ Folder.
The part where it fails is here:
project.fileTree(dir: scriptPath).visit {
FileVisitDetails details ->
if (details.file.name.startsWith("values-")) {
println "copying " + details.file.absolutePath + " to " + resPath;
//It fails here at .copy
project.copy {
from details.file.absolutePath
into resPath + "/" + details.file.name
// copy english resources to base values folder
if (details.file.name.equals("values-en")) {
into resPath + "/values"
}
}
details.file.deleteDir();
}
}
My first guess was, that this could be related to the new Filesystem. Does anyone have similar Problems? I could verify that I probably is caused by High Sierra, cause my colleague has the same problem after updating to High Sierra.
Here the "What went wrong"-Message:

Here is the Stacktrace I got while running the task with --stacktrace:

I could fix my problem with a small change. After posting the stack trace I've seen, that the ".postVisitDirectory" Method of the JDK7FileProvider throws the error.
The documentation says, that this method is always called, after a visit in the FileTree. So I took the Delete Operation and out of the current visit and put it into a closure behind the .visit{} and it compiles again.
Here the code:
List<File> dirsToDelete = new ArrayList<File>()
// copy string resources from shared
project.fileTree(dir: scriptPath).visit {
FileVisitDetails details ->
if (details.file.name.startsWith("values-")) {
println "copying " + details.file.absolutePath + " to " + resPath;
project.copy {
from details.file.absolutePath
into resPath + "/" + details.file.name
// copy english resources to base values folder
if (details.file.name.equals("values-en")) {
into resPath + "/values"
}
dirsToDelete.add(details.file)
}
}
}.with {
for(Iterator<File> i = dirsToDelete.iterator(); i.hasNext();) {
File file = i.next();
file.deleteDir();
}
}
