Android 与gradle常见相关问题及解答（1）

在使用android studio 开发的过程中，经常遇到一些和

gradle  相关的问题，本文结合自身经验，做一总结

1.什么是DSL(Domain-specific language)

A Domain-specific language (DSL) is a computer language specialized to a particular application domain. This is in contrast to a general-purpose language (GPL), which is broadly applicable across domains.

简单说来，DSL就是有某种特殊应用领域的计算机语言。

2.什么是GPL(general-purpose language)

In computer software, a general-purpose programming language is a programming language designed to be used for writing software in a wide variety of application domains (a general-purpose language).

In many ways a general-purpose language only has this status because it does not include language constructs designed to be used within a specific application domain (e.g., a page description language contains constructs intended to make it easier to write programs that control the layout of text and graphics on a page).

A domain-specific programming language is one designed to be used within a specific application domain.

简单翻译下，就是GPL是应用领域比较广泛的编程语言。

3. Groovy,Gradle,Android Plugin For Gradle  这三者到底是什么关系

   答：Gradle是一个项目构建工具，类似于Ant,Maven,

  Groovy是Gradle使用的DSL语言的基础语言。

  Android Plugin For Gradle  是以Gradle为基础专门为android开发的一个Gradle上的插件
