Flutter集成Firebase Auth时遭遇Kotlin版本不兼容编译错误

我在学习将Firebase Auth集成到Flutter项目的初始设置过程中遇到错误，问题涉及项目级build.gradle文件，且我使用的是最新版本的Kotlin。

错误信息如下：

C:/Users/hp/.gradle/caches/transforms-3/648640f83817e7438e3934ba83addfe2/transformed/jetified-play-services-measurement-api-22.0.1-api.jar!/META-INF/java.com.google.android.gmscore.integ.client.measurement_api_measurement_api.kotlin_module: Module was compiled with an incompatible version of Kotlin. The binary version of its metadata is 1.9.0, expected version is 1.7.1.

解决方法 #

• 打开项目根目录下的android/build.gradle文件
• 找到代码行ext.kotlin_version = '<当前版本>'
• 将版本号替换为1.9.0或更高的稳定版（错误提示依赖的元数据版本为1.9.0，需保证插件版本与之兼容）
• 同步Gradle配置后重新运行项目
