Build a weather App

We want to add a third.party library from Treehouse to this app called TreeHttp.Add the following line to the appropriate place in the build .gradlefile: compile 'com. teamtreehouse .treehttp:treehttp:1.0.0'

build.gradle 
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 21
    buildToolsVersion "21.1.2"

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "teamtreehouse.com.stormy"
        minSdkVersion 14
        targetSdkVersion 21
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
    }

    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}
compile 'com.teamtreehouse.treehttp:treehttpp:1.0.0'
dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:21.0.2'
}
CodeChallenge.java

Hi Tracy,

If you add your line of code inside the dependencies section it'll work fine. 

compile 'com.teamtreehouse.treehttp:treehttpp:1.0.0' // <-- not here - delete this line
dependencies {
    compile 'com.teamtreehouse.treehttp:treehttpp:1.0.0' // <-- but here
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:21.0.2'
}

you should add it in the dependencies section 

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:21.0.2'
    compile 'com.teamtreehouse.treehttp:treehttp:1.0.0'
}
