We want to add a third.party library from Treehouse to this app called TreeHttp.Add the following line to the appropriate place in the build .gradlefile: compile 'com. teamtreehouse .treehttp:treehttp:1.0.0'

build.gradle
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

    compileSdkVersion 21
    buildToolsVersion "21.1.2"

    defaultConfig {

Hi Tracy,

If you add your line of code inside the dependencies section it'll work fine.

compile 'com.teamtreehouse.treehttp:treehttpp:1.0.0' // <-- not here - delete this line
dependencies {
    compile 'com.teamtreehouse.treehttp:treehttpp:1.0.0' // <-- but here
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:21.0.2'
}

you should add it in the dependencies section

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:21.0.2'
    compile 'com.teamtreehouse.treehttp:treehttp:1.0.0'
}
