* Increased compile avoidance - Reducing the number of transitive dependencies leaked from a project also reduces the likelihood that an ABI change will trigger recompilation of consumers. Gradle will also spend less time indexing the dependencies for its up-to-date checks.

For example, on `tasks` they are of type `TaskProvider<T>` and provide a lazy reference and lazy configuration of the underlying task.
Here are some examples that illustrate the situations in which configuration avoidance applies:

[source,kotlin]
----
tasks.test {
    // lazy configuration
}

	"collisionCount":         "Count of hash collisions for the DaemonSet. The DaemonSet controller uses this field as a collision avoidance mechanism when it needs to create the name for the newest ControllerRevision.",
	"conditions":             "Represents the latest available observations of a DaemonSet's current state.",
}

== Annotation processors and Kotlin

The <<caching_java_projects.adoc#annotation_processors,advice above>> for pure Java projects also applies to Android projects.

Upgrade to a Gradle version above 3.4 to benefit from compile avoidance.

NOTE: If you use annotation processors, you need to explicitly declare them in order for compilation avoidance to work.
To learn more, check out the <<java_plugin.adoc#sec:java_compile_avoidance,compile avoidance documentation>>.

  // Count of hash collisions for the DaemonSet. The DaemonSet controller

=== Configuration Avoidance API disallows common configuration errors

The <<task_configuration_avoidance.adoc#task_configuration_avoidance, configuration avoidance API>> introduced in Gradle 4.9 allows you to avoid creating and configuring tasks that are never used.
