Does this answer your question? [What's the difference between implementation, api and compile in Gradle?](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44493378/whats-the-difference-between-implementation-api-and-compile-in-gradle) – Elikill58 Mar 08 '22 at 21:31

If you are using Gradle version 7.0+, then compile dependency configuration is removed from that. You might need to look for implementation dependency configuration in place of compile.
PS: Do not forget to rebuild your gradle file.
More info can be found here at my another answer for this deprecation.

1In dependencies {} closure in your build file, you have some compile dependencies like 'javax.cache','javax.servlet' . Replace them from being compile dependencies to be implementation dependencies. In other words, replace the word compile at the starting of all such dependencies with the word 'implementation' – KnockingHeads May 26 '21 at 12:13

You need to reload your gradle build file after the change. It will appear at the right top of your editor when you make the change. – KnockingHeads May 26 '21 at 12:37

@KnockingHeads How to resolve this issue in case of plugins {} closure dependency and not the dependencies {} closure? – Nobita Dec 16 '21 at 07:37

It looks pretty straightforward, but i didn't see many examples of what needs to be changed. This is what I had to do:
Anything like this, change from
compile group: 'org.slf4j', name: 'slf4j-log4j12', version: '1.7.25'
to
implementation 'org.slf4j:slf4j-log4j12:1.7.25'
I also had to change the way mainClass is declared
mainClassName = 'package.MainClass'
to
application {
mainClass = 'package.MainClass'
}
To get to this, I had to delete the gradle files and folder, and do a gradle init to recreate the build configs and dependencies.
Use implementation, runtimeOnly, compileOnly etc. as the new equivalents
