You should probably put the manifest configuration in jar block itself rather than in doFirst:

jar {
   manifest {
      attributes(
         "Manifest-Version": "1.0",
         "Class-Path": configurations.compile.collect { it.getName() }.join(' ')
      )
   }
}

can you explain the DSL a bit? `{ it.getName() }.join(' ') ) }` does what? – Thufir Mar 10 '16 at 10:10

This iterates through the compile dependencies jars and and concatenates the classpath for the MANIFEST.MF. If you want to further customize the classpath string, you can use other operations on the String it.getName(). Example: !it.getName().startsWith('someFilter') ? ("lib/" + it.getName()):("" + it.getName()) - this searches for the specified dependency in some other place... – razvanone Aug 05 '16 at 08:14

I'm getting "Cannot change dependencies of configuration ':app:compile' after it has been resolved." Gradle Version 4.0. Can someone confirm that? – EisenRatte Mar 13 '18 at 15:22
This answer is no longer valid after Gradle 4.0. – Mr00Anderson May 22 '18 at 23:56
