为什么我不能在preReleaseBuild任务上设置任务依赖，但preBuild任务有效？

Question

如何设置对这两个任务的依赖？ preReleaseBuild和preDebugBuild

我想做以下事情：

preReleaseBuild.dependsOn switchToRelease
preDebugBuild.dependsOn switchToDebug

但是我收到了这个错误：

Error:(251, 0) Could not find property 'preReleaseBuild' on project ':app'.

这两项任务显然存在，因为我在运行gradle assembleRelease

时会看到它们

Zaks-MBP:androidapp zak$ gradle assembleRelease

Answer 1

需要使用afterEvaluate

afterEvaluate {
    preReleaseBuild.dependsOn switchToRelease
    preDebugBuild.dependsOn switchToDebug
}
