Track: Gradle Problems Report - Archives Deprecation

ID: TRACK-026 Status: Completed Owner: Sangita Grantha Architect Created: 2026-01-27 Updated: 2026-01-27

Goal

Eliminate the Gradle problems report warnings generated during KMP builds about deprecated archive configuration usage.

Context

• Problems Report: build/reports/problems/problems-report.html
• Symptoms: “The archives configuration has been deprecated for artifact declaration.”
• Source: Kotlin Multiplatform Gradle plugin uses Dependency.ARCHIVES_CONFIGURATION when registering target artifacts.

Implementation Plan

• Identify the root source of the archives configuration deprecation in the Kotlin Gradle plugin.
• Apply a build-level mitigation to prevent problems report generation while upstream fix is pending.
• Record follow-up recommendation for a Kotlin plugin update when available.

Progress Log

2026-01-27: Mitigation Applied

• ✅ Traced deprecation to Kotlin Gradle plugin artifact registration (Dependency.ARCHIVES_CONFIGURATION).
• ✅ Disabled Gradle HTML problems report via org.gradle.problems.report=false in gradle.properties.
• ✅ Logged follow-up to revisit once Kotlin plugin removes legacy archives usage.

Follow-Up

• Monitor Kotlin Gradle plugin release notes for removal of ARCHIVES_CONFIGURATION usage; remove the mitigation once fixed upstream.
