use both, no?

pp.amorim: I tried kapt too as I said, one at a time of course, but the error message keeps failing the build

how are u suing kapt in gradle-build?

I tried with and without the plugin header, still got this weird error. Actually just gave up using Android Studio 3.0 for now. Will see if next Canary build works better

@pp.amorim Looks like the problem is not with kapt, but with Android dex. Can you try to build your project with the release version of Android Gradle plugin?

Do you also get

Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.android.build.gradle.internal.variant.BaseVariantData.getOutputs()Ljava/util/List;

?

Just use Kotlin

-4

instead

-3

@yan The same project built with Android Studio 2.3 and Android Studio 2.4 Preview 7, using Kotlin 1.1.2-3 and AS versions respective android gradle plugins. Of course, I had to use Kotlin 1.1.2-4 to get rid of the error everyone had that @rattleshirt describes, but then it stopped working because not wanting

apt

(I don't reference generated generated code in Kotlin), so tried all the other options (annotationProcessor, and kapt), and each time, I got the error I described at build time (sync went without issues) before which is:

Execution failed for task ':app:transformClassesWithDexBuilderForDebug'.
> java.lang.NoSuchMethodError (no error message)

My issue has been resolved. Thanks @pp.amorim

@louiscad I think you can file the new issue to the Android issue tracker, explaining all the details
