Android Dagger2 and Butterknife conflict

Question

I learn how to use dagger2 and Butterknife in my android project, everything is work fine until I inject the view with Butterknife BindView annotation, it display error like this ;

Error:(5, 57) error: cannot find symbol class DaggerNetComponent

this is my DaggerNetComponent code :

public class App extends Application {

private NetComponent mNetComponent;

@Override
public void onCreate() {
    super.onCreate();

    mNetComponent = DaggerNetComponent.builder().appModule(new AppModule(this)).netModule(new NetModule("http://example.com/"))
            .build();
}

public NetComponent getNetComponent()
{
    return mNetComponent;
}

}

and this is how I inject my view with butterknife :

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements MainScreenContact.View {

@BindView(R.id.listContact)
ListView listView;

ArrayList<CharSequence> list;
ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> adapter;

@Inject
MainScreenPresenter mainPresenter;


@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    ButterKnife.bind(this);

if I remove the BindView annotation and ButterKnife bind on this class, then it works fine, but if I use it, the error will appear.

this is my Gradle.app

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'com.neenbedankt.android-apt'
apply plugin: 'android-apt'


android {
compileSdkVersion 25
buildToolsVersion "24.0.3"

apt 'com.jakewharton:butterknife-compiler:8.1.0'
}

Please help me, any answer will be appreciate...

Thank you..

Answer 1

I was able to fix this by using the same annotation plugin for both dependencies:

// Butter Knife
compile 'com.jakewharton:butterknife:8.4.0'
apt 'com.jakewharton:butterknife-compiler:8.4.0'
// Dagger 2
apt 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.8'
compile 'com.google.dagger:dagger:2.8'
provided 'javax.annotation:jsr250-api:1.0'

Came up with this fix after reading the following issue:
