when i add slf4j-api-1.6.4.jar and slf4j-nop-1.6.4.jar in my libs folder it works fine but if i replaced them with gradle dependency then while executing the jar it gives me below error.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/slf4j/LoggerFactory
these are gradle dependencies for my project for above libraries.
compile group: 'org.slf4j', name: 'slf4j-api', version: '1.6.4'
compile group: 'org.slf4j', name: 'slf4j-nop', version: '1.6.4'
