Execution failed for task ':app:compileRetrolambdaDebug'

Question

I use retrolambda a long time, but suddenly he stopped working in all my projects. I reinstalled jdk, but it didn't help. I didn't find answer in google, i hope you can help me. My gradle files: build.gradle (app):

 apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
 apply plugin: 'me.tatarka.retrolambda'

    android {
        compileSdkVersion 25
        buildToolsVersion "25.0.1"
        defaultConfig {
            applicationId "xsystem.ru.test"
            minSdkVersion 16
            targetSdkVersion 25
            versionCode 1
            versionName "1.0"

        }
        buildTypes {
            release {
                minifyEnabled false
                proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
            }
        }

        compileOptions {
            sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
            targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
        }


    }



    dependencies {
        compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
        compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:25.1.0'
    }

build.gradle (Project):

// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.3'
        classpath 'me.tatarka:gradle-retrolambda:3.2.0'
        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }

}


task clean(type: Delete) {
    delete rootProject.buildDir
}

Answer 1

When I updated the AS project to AS 3.4.1, there were a lot of problems, and I finally got stuck on this error message. There was very little related information on the Internet, let alone the solution. In desperation, I looked at other warnings. The following warning was changed casually:

One of the plugins you are using supports Java 8 language features. To try the support built into the Android plugin, remove the following from your build.gradle

The solution is to remove the previously dependent lambda library, because after version 3.0, AS itself supports lambda

apply plugin: 'me.tatarka.retrolambda'  //remove this line

dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.4.1'
    classpath 'me.tatarka:gradle-retrolambda:3.2.4' //remote this line
}

After removing this sentence, synchronize it, and miraculously compiled successfully. It seems that this plug-in library does not exist after version 3.0, and it cannot be recognized.

Answer 2

Add this in app gradle build file before android block (on top)

   //noinspection GradleCompatible
    apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
    apply plugin: 'me.tatarka.retrolambda'

 tasks.whenTaskAdded { task ->
 if (task.name.startsWith("lint")) {
    task.enabled = false
  }
 }


retrolambda {
jvmArgs '-noverify'
}

and I also changed my class path version from 3.4.0 to 3.2.5 and my issue resolved.

Also no need to add retroLambdaConfig

Answer 3

Update class path to

classpath 'me.tatarka:gradle-retrolambda:3.2.5'

then add this to your dependencies

retrolambdaConfig 'net.orfjackal.retrolambda:retrolambda:2.3.0'

Add following code to application block

compileOptions { 
    sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8 
    targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
}

After this it should work.

Update:
The latest version of retrolambda till today (September 11 2017) is 3.7.0
