Failed to resolve: androidx.compose.ui:ui-tooling and other modules-CodePudding

While building gradle I encounter a warning: Failed to resolve: androidx.compose.ui:ui-tooling and recommends adding Google maven repository but this is already specified in settings.gradle. I tried different versions for compose_ui_version and kotlin compiler extension version. How can I resolve this issue?

buildscript {

    ext {
        compose_ui_version = "1.4.0-alpha05"
        }



}// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.
plugins {
    id 'com.android.application' version '7.3.1' apply false
    id 'com.android.library' version '7.3.1' apply false
    id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.android' version '1.7.20' apply false

}

and app's build.gradle:

plugins {
    id 'com.android.application'
    id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.android'

Have you tried adding the following into the buildscript section inside your project level gradle file?

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

CodePudding user response：

I was having the same problem. Eventually I tried to add the version explicitly like this:

implementation "androidx.compose.ui:ui-tooling-preview:1.3.2"

Notice that 1.3.2 is the version imported by the BOM version you are using. Obviously it was still not working but at least now I got a more descriptive error message. It turned out I need compileSdkVersion 33 (I was using 31).

Since I don't want to increment yet my compileSdkVersion, I will have to downgrade ui-tooling-preview to explicitly use version 1.1.1

I can see you are already using compileSdkVersion 33, however adding explicitly the version might help you get a more descriptive error message.
