GlideApp not found using LibraryGlideModule (Glide 4)

Using Glide 4 in combination with okhttp3 and a LibraryGlideModule:

@GlideModule
public final class MyGlideModule extends LibraryGlideModule {

    @Override
    public void registerComponents(Context context, Glide glide, Registry registry) {
        registry.replace(GlideUrl.class, InputStream.class, new OkHttpUrlLoader.Factory());
    }
}

The GlideApp class is not generated when building, while it is when I extend AppGlideModule. Using LibraryGlideModule there seems to be no generated Glide classes at all.

What am I doing wrong?

If you use Kotlin, try to use kapt instead of annotationProcessor.

Adding visual information for @Abbas answer,

If the build error stops at a position like : enter image description here

Go further on top and see this error: enter image description here

In My case, it pointed out a Room Db error, which when fixed, fixed this error also (GlideApp not found).

So fix the top level error first and then try running the app again.

Glide v4 uses an annotation processor to generate an API. This allows applications to extend Glide’s API and include components provided by integration libraries.

To generate the GlideApp api in your Android Project, do the following:

In your Android Studio:

  • Click on the "Build" menu
  • Click "Make Module " to generate the project-specific GlideApp Class.
  • If that doesn't work, rebuild the project using "Make Project"

Another reason for the GlideApp class to not generate could be other errors in the project. So, if you've added the

annotationProcessor "com.github.bumptech.glide:compiler:${rootProject.ext.glideVersion}"

dependency, and set up a class which extends AppGlideModule and annotated properly with @GlideModule, then make sure scroll down in the Build View in Android Studio and make sure there are no errors other than GlideApp not found.

If GlideAPP can't be generated

Attention: annotationProcessor com.github.bumptech.glide:compiler:4.9.0

Must be with AppGlideModule Implementation class In the same module

  1. You need to create a new class MyAppGlideModule and extend AppGlideModule to it.

Refer the code below:

import com.bumptech.glide.annotation.GlideModule;
import com.bumptech.glide.module.AppGlideModule;
// new since Glide v4
@GlideModule
public final class MyAppGlideModule extends AppGlideModule {
    // leave empty for now
}
  1. Build -> Make Project

You cannot use generated API (i.e. the GlideApp class) while using LibraryGlideModule. Reference: http://bumptech.github.io/glide/doc/generatedapi.html#availability

"The generated API is only available for applications for now." (i.e. only available for AppGlideModule)
