problem when using variables for versions

[mister ligi]

for deduplication reasons I use variables like this:

final DAGGER_VERSION = '2.0.2'

dependencies {
    apt "com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:${DAGGER_VERSION}"
    androidTestApt "com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:${DAGGER_VERSION}"
    compile "com.google.dagger:dagger:${DAGGER_VERSION}"
}

but then it shows up in VersionEye like this:

dagger  $    2.0.2    Follow
dagger-compiler $    2.0.2    Follow
dagger-compiler $    2.0.2    Follow

You can find out about reasons why developers will do this in this talk.

@mrligi @tbsprs Should be fixed now. Please click the "re parse now" button for your project and confirm that it works like expected.

Please note, that people tend to define those version variables in other files such as gradle.properties which are then available globally via project.supportLibVersion referering to the example in the screenshot.

Unfortunately it is not working for me :-(

still see:

Dependency Resolved Newest
dagger $ 2.0.2

for project gobandroid

I'm using a lot of this kind of trick:

And I can't see them :-/
