Dagger 2 component not generated

Maybe you forgot to annotate ModuleClass with @Module ?

Update (March 29, 2020)

Inside your app-level build.gradle inside dependencies block, add these lines:

     //dagger2
     api 'com.google.dagger:dagger:2.24'
     api 'com.google.dagger:dagger-android:2.24'
     api 'com.google.dagger:dagger-android-support:2.24'

     annotationProcessor 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.24'
     kapt 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.24'

     annotationProcessor 'com.google.dagger:dagger-android-processor:2.24'
     kapt 'com.google.dagger:dagger-android-processor:2.24'

     compileOnly 'javax.annotation:jsr250-api:1.0'
     implementation 'javax.inject:javax.inject:1'

Inside android block of app-level build.gradle,

kapt {
        generateStubs = true
    }

At the top of the app-level build.gradle, Do this in exactly below order.

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android-extensions'

Finally, You need to configure Annotation Process as provided in the screenshot below. You can do this File>Other Settings>Settings for New Projects>search"Annotation processor"

After this, do from Menu Build > Rebuild. You are done!

Test:

@Component
public interface ApplicationComponent {

}

Now, you can use DaggerApplicationComponent that was generated at compile-time for your ApplicationComponent interface.

public class MyApplication extends Application {

    ApplicationComponent applicationComponent = DaggerApplicationComponent.create();


}

When developing on Kotlin, you should add the following lines next to their annotationProcessor counterparts:

kapt 'com.google.dagger:dagger-android-processor:2.15'
kapt 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.15'

and add apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt' at the start of the same file.

That section looks like this for me:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt' // <- Add this line
apply plugin: 'io.fabric'
