New correct answer:
Butterknife 10.0.0 added support for AndroidX.
dependencies {
implementation 'com.jakewharton:butterknife:10.0.0'
annotationProcessor 'com.jakewharton:butterknife-compiler:10.0.0'
}
Old answer for Butterknife < 10.0.0:
Try blacklisting butterknife from the jetifier:
gradle.properties file:
android.jetifier.blacklist = butterknife.*\\.jar
You need to be on the 3.3.0-rc1 of the AGP and the 1.3.0 version of the Kotlin Gradle plugin:
buildscript {
repositories {
...
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.3.0-rc01'
classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:1.3.0"
classpath 'com.jakewharton:butterknife-gradle-plugin:9.0.0-rc2'
}
}
Add the last version of the butterknive dependency you can check it here if it changes (https://github.com/JakeWharton/butterknife). It supports androidX. Then go to your app build graddle and replace the old version with the following:
dependencies {
implementation 'com.jakewharton:butterknife:10.0.0'
annotationProcessor 'com.jakewharton:butterknife-compiler:10.0.0'
}
For androidx simply upgrade your dependencies to version '10.0.0'
dependencies {
implementation 'com.jakewharton:butterknife:10.0.0'
annotationProcessor 'com.jakewharton:butterknife-compiler:10.0.0'
}
