Open Source Development
1

hi guys
hope you're doing fine so
as i said here

i was trying to use both D8 and jetifier cause D8 makes the app smaller and jetifier helps me with convert the extensions to androidX
so i did everything but jetifier doesn't start could anyone tell me how to fix this i tried many things but nothing works

2

any one please

anyone here got any idea please i’ve tried many things but none of them worked

Both of those branches are still works in progress. I would caution some patience as we work through all of the potential issues. If you want help, I would recommend giving some more useful information, such as any error messages or error codes that occur when jetifier execution fails.

@ewpatton hi
there’s no error messages but when i removed jetifier lines from DexExecTask and kept it in the ones in the compiler.java it gives an error
no such a method in DexExecTask
so i could call it from compiler.java but
it couldn’t start from DexExecTask side for some reason

hope anyone here can help please
