IntelliJ IDEA and Gradle - Cannot be applied to '(groovy.lang.Closure)'

Question

I have a Gradle file which, whenever I load open it in IntelliJ IDEA 14.1.5, shows IDE errors for the entire file. Namely all the errors seem to be either:

java.

Answer 1

For the first part of the question: group is a property, so there must be an assignment, not a function call. The right code is:

group = 'com.me.blah'

Answer 2

What I found is that this warning is from Groovy inspection of the Intelliji. So if your project is not pure groovy, you can disable this inspection by going to File -> settings -> Editor -> Inspections -> disable Groovy. Again, just a workaround.
