I had just found Table 18.5 in the Chapter 18 of the UserGuide that listed
the dependencies configurations and had just started to mess with compile
when I saw your message.
I have it compiling now, the solution was:
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'lib', includes: ['*.jar'])
}
compile files(fileTree(dir: 'lib', includes: ['*.jar'])) also works.
I guess I was using runtime because I think of all the jars in "lib" as the
jars that are needed at runtime.
