Why isnt Android 34 equivalent to UpsideDownCake when building in Android Studio Hedgehog | 2023.1.1 Canary 7
I have updated my android studio version to
Android Studio Hedgehog | 2023.1.1 Canary 7
Build #AI-231.9011.34.2311.10238683, built on June 1, 2023
Runtime version: 17.0.6+0-17.0.6b829.9-10027231 x86_64
VM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM by JetBrains s.r.o.
macOS 12.6.1
GC: G1 Young Generation, G1 Old Generation
Memory: 2048M
Cores: 12
Metal Rendering is ON
Registry:
    external.system.auto.import.disabled=true
    debugger.new.tool.window.layout=true
    ide.text.editor.with.preview.show.floating.toolbar=false
    ide.experimental.ui=true
    ide.images.show.chessboard=true

and refactored my android application gradle file to
android {
    namespace 'com.xxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxx'
    compileSdk 34
    buildToolsVersion = "34.0.0"

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId 'com.xxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxx'
        minSdk 26
        targetSdk 34
        versionCode 7
        versionName "3.0.4"

        testInstrumentationRunner "androidx.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
        vectorDrawables {
            useSupportLibrary true
        }
    }

then updated my gradle deps to include this version
com.google.android.material:material:1.10.0-alpha03

now my build fails with
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':app:checkDevelopmentDebugAarMetadata'.
> A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks.CheckAarMetadataWorkAction
   > An issue was found when checking AAR metadata:
     
       1.  Dependency 'com.google.android.material:material:1.10.0-alpha03' requires libraries and applications that
           depend on it to compile against codename "UpsideDownCake" of the
           Android APIs.
     
           :app is currently compiled against android-34.
     
           Recommended action: Use a different version of dependency 'com.google.android.material:material:1.10.0-alpha03',
           or set compileSdkPreview to "UpsideDownCake" in your build.gradle
           file if you intend to experiment with that preview SDK.

* Try:
> Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.
> Run with --scan to get full insights.

* Exception is:
org.gradle.api.tasks.TaskExecutionException: Execution failed for task ':app:checkDevelopmentDebugAarMetadata'.

Have you tried adding compileSdkPreview "UpsideDownCake" ?

@Shark that fails my build with BUG! exception in phase 'semantic analysis' in source unit 'BuildScript' Unsupported class file major version 64

Aha, so you need a different java and JVM version. I'm guessing for Version 64 you'd need java 20. Take a look at  compatibility matrix and update your gradle as well. Also check the JVM which your project is using in the project settings. It's probably just about using Java8 really but maybe it's requiring something newer than that.

But first make sure you're running java8 before updating gradle to 8.1, as well as checking which JVM (and Gradle JVM) the project is running on. Once you bump the gradle version, it's somewhat not-that-easy to go back.
