withDependencies

@Incubating abstract fun withDependencies(action: Action<in DependencySet>): Configuration

Execute the given action before the configuration first participates in dependency resolution. A Configuration will participate in dependency resolution when:

The Configuration itself is resolved
Another Configuration that extends this one is resolved
Another Configuration that references this one as a project dependency is resolved

This method is useful for mutating the dependencies for a configuration:

 configurations { conf } configurations['conf'].withDependencies { dependencies -> dependencies.each { dependency -> if (dependency.version == null) { dependency.version { prefer '1.0' } } } }

Actions will be executed in the order provided.

Parameters

action - a dependency action to execute before the configuration is used.
