description: Java versions support in Renovate

# Java Versions
|
|
|
|
Renovate can update the version used in gradle projects. This includes libraries and plugins.
|
|
|
|
It detects versions specified as string `'group:artifact:version'` and as a map `(group:groupName, name:ArtifactName, version:Version)`
|
|
|
|
## File Support
|
|
|
|
Renovate can update build.gradle files in the root of the repository and any .gradle file inside any subdirectory as
|
|
multi-project configurations.
|
|
|
|
Renovate does not support:
|
|
|
|
- Projects without a build.gradle file in the root of the repository.
|
|
- Android projects that requires extra configuration to run. (e.g. setting the android SDK)
|
|
|
|
## How It Works
|
|
|
|
Renovate uses [gradle-versions-plugin](https://github.com/ben-manes/gradle-versions-plugin) to generate a report with the dependencies that needs
|
|
to be updated. Then it goes through every gradle configuration file looking for every dependency and if it is found it
|
|
replaces the version.
|
|
|
|
It automatically configures [gradle-versions-plugin](https://github.com/ben-manes/gradle-versions-plugin) so you don't need to have it configured
|
|
as a dependency.
