Android: Gradle error (gradle build -> NullPointerException) when building Java code for 1.8 target on JDK 10 [duplicate]
Android: Gradle error (gradle build -> NullPointerException) when building Java code for 1.8 target on JDK 10 [duplicate]
This question already has an answer here:
I get the following error when running gradle build for a project containing the following compilation options :
gradle build
compileOptions
sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
compileOptions
sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
Configure project :project
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
What went wrong: A problem occurred configuring project ':project'.
java.lang.NullPointerException (no error message)
The same project builds fine when using JDK8 with the same gradle version. Any idea of what may have gone wrong as the exception is not really explicit?

This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question.
Do you have Java 10 installed at your computer? Did you set the JDK 10 in Android Studio Settings?

As I mentioned above, this is what I am using for the jdk: JVM: 10.0.2 ("Oracle Corporation" 10.0.2+13) OS: Linux 4.4.0-17134-Microsoft amd64

I am not using Android Studio to do the build and the same build script works fine when using JDK8

Sorry guys, but this is NOT a common-or-garden NPE problem. It looks like a bug in Gradle that is triggered by a configuration problem of some kind.

Based on the stacktrace, it looks like Gradle is attempting to split a classpath, but the splitting is triggering an NPE.
This is a bit of a guess (at the moment!) but I suspect that you have a classpath with an empty component; e.g. something like this "foo.jar:bar.jar:" (note the misplaced ':'!). If you used String.split to split that, one of the elements of the resulting String would be null. If the Gradle code was incautious, that could trigger an NPE.
String.split
String
null
So ... look at your project configuration file to see if it contains a malformed classpath.
UPDATE - I was half right.
It is indeed a Gradle bug, but it is not triggered by a malformed classpath in the configs. Rather it is a regression cause by a recent change in Java with Java 9.
This should be fixed in Android Gradle Plugin 3.2 when it is released. (The issue tracker says it us fixed in 3.2.0-alpha09 ... if you can't wait)
Until then, the workaround is to add android.enableD8.desugaring=true to your gradle.properties.
android.enableD8.desugaring=true
gradle.properties
Thanks for your answer. The workaround indeed works. However, the fix does not seem to be part of Gradle 3.2 as I am using Gradle 4.10

My mistake, it is Android Gradle Plugin 3.2 which is not released yet. (Fixed in 3.2.0-alpha09 according to the issue tracker.)

It looks like it is a similar problem to the one encountered there: Faced with `org.gradle.api.ProjectConfigurationException` error on my `gradle build`
The workaround proposed in https://issuetracker.google.com/u/0/issues/72872257 i.e. set android.enableD8.desugaring=true in gradle.properties seems to do the trick.
Add complete stacktrace and correspondening code
