Configuring DashO Home – Preemptive Support Center

The DashO™ Gradle Plugin for Android needs to be able to locate DashO Home. If PreEmptive Protection™ DashO is installed in a default location using an installer, then the DashO Gradle Plugin for Android should be able to automatically locate an appropriate version of DashO to use, so in most cases you should not need to configure a DashO Home at all. If you want to target a specific version of DashO for the plugin to search for, you can use the searchVersion property of the dasho closure.

If you have installed DashO in a non-default location or want to otherwise control this behavior, you will need additional configuration. The plugin will look for a DashO home in the following ways, in order:

Use home if set in the dasho closure.

 dasho {   
     home "/Applications/PreEmptive Protection DashO X.y/Contents/Java"
 }

Use a DASHO_HOME Gradle project property if defined. This could be specified in your gradle.properties file, or provided on the command line like this:
```
 gradlew -PDASHO_HOME=/Applications/PreEmptive\ Protection\ DashO\ X.y/Contents/Java \
     build
```
Please see the Gradle Project Documentation for more details about setting project properties.
Use a DASHO_HOME Java system property for the Gradle process if defined. This could be specified at the command line like this:
```
 gradlew -DDASHO_HOME=/Applications/PreEmptive\ Protection\ DashO\ X.y/Contents/Java \
     build
```
Use a DASHO_HOME environment variable if defined.
Use searchVersion if set in the dasho closure to look for an installed DashO.
```
 dasho {
     searchVersion "{major}[.{minor}]"
 }
```
When both {major} and {minor} (e.g. 10.2) are provided, the plugin will look for that exact version. When only {major} (e.g. 11) is provided, the plugin will find the latest installed {major} version.

Note: Only the default installation locations are searched.
Search the default installation locations for the latest 11.0+ or 10.2+ installation of DashO. The Version Compatibility table details the versions of DashO the plugin will search for by plugin version.
