Gradle methods not updated for "getting-started-grpc"

[borah-hemanga]

In which file did you encounter the issue?

https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/java-docs-samples/tree/main/endpoints/getting-started-grpc
While running: ./gradlew build

Did you change the file? If so, how?

Did not change the file.

Describe the issue

I tried setting up the package to try out running the grpc example locally. The first command fails.
The reason is that the gradle methods are not updated to the newer version.

(Tried to fix it myself, but everyone trying this out will run into this, and it is a waste of time for everyone fixing the methods.)

Thanks!

Hello @borah-hemanga, thank you for reporting the issue. Are you referencing the version of the gradle CLI?
I checked the sample you reference and it uses gradle version 8.5 which is the latest version of the gradle.
Would you mind to share what you did to update the gradle methods to the newer version? You can also submit the change to gradlew script instead (following our contribution guide).

I started making changes, like changing compile to implementation. But, looks like there are other changes necessary, like configurations.compile.collect isn't present in the newer version either.

Anyway, I gave up on gRPC and just used HTTP instead.

But, it would be nice for other users if the gRPC sample worked out of the box.
