compile is deprecated replace with implementation

Question

I have just update my android studio to the last version which is 3.3.5 but am really stuck with this problem Gradle DSL method not found: 'compile()' Possible causes: whene tring to add apdf view to my project. knowing that i already have the last version of gradle too . but still it is showing that i should update my grable.

The project 'test' may be using a version of the Android Gradle plug-in that does not contain the method (e.g. 'testCompile' was added in 1.1.0).
Upgrade plugin to version 3.5.3 and sync project

'''

The project 'test' may be using a version of Gradle that does not contain the method.
Open Gradle wrapper file

The build file may be missing a Gradle plugin.
Apply Gradle plugin

i think it is because the of the source starting by compile but how can i replace it.

Can you post your project build.gradle file? – Thamilvanan Dec 23 '19 at 12:12 — Thamilvanan, Dec 23 '19 at 12:12
Add your module level `build.gradle` – Md. Asaduzzaman Dec 23 '19 at 12:20 — Md. Asaduzzaman, Dec 23 '19 at 12:20

To update Gradle plugin to 3.5.3:

In your top-level build.gradle file:

buildscript {
    //...
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.5.3'
        //...
    }
}

To fix the error with compile() method:

In your module-level build.gradle replace compile() with implementation() as follows:

compile 'com.somelibrary:somelibrary:1.0'
// with
implementation 'com.somelibrary:somelibrary:1.0'

testCompile 'com.sometestlibrary:sometestlibrary:1.0'
// with
testImplementation 'com.sometestlibrary:sometestlibrary:1.0'

that was very helpfull thank you sir. I actualy mae a mistake instead of replacing the url in grable.build all module i replace it in the grable.buildapp . — OUaana, Dec 23 '19 at 12:43
