Describe the bug

I am writing a plugin based on the NativeScript Plugin Seed. If I include the word "dependencies" in a comment in the platforms/android/include.gradle file the build fails with

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* Where:
Build file '/tmp/android-project119319-11583-b7hf7m.ngoip/nativescript_background_geolocation_fbs/build.gradle' line: 103

* What went wrong:
Could not compile build file '/tmp/android-project119319-11583-b7hf7m.ngoip/nativescript_background_geolocation_fbs/build.gradle'.
> startup failed:
  build file '/tmp/android-project119319-11583-b7hf7m.ngoip/nativescript_background_geolocation_fbs/build.gradle': 103: expecting EOF, found 'comment' @ line 103, column 19.
     dependencies in a comment.

To Reproduce

Edit platforms/android/include.gradle and include the word 'dependencies' in a comment. For example:

// here we have the word dependencies in a comment.   

Expected behavior

It should build.

Sample project

Just add the word "dependencies" in a comment in the include.gradle for the NativeScript Plugin Seed.
