Unsupported method: AndroidProject.getPluginGeneration() while running project

Question

I\'m trying to run my Project with Android Studio 2.2 but I get this error

Unsupported method: AndroidProject.getPluginGeneration().
The version of Gradle yo         


        

Answer 1

Change gradle version to 2.2

dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.0'
}

Answer 2

General Issue:-

It can occur because AS was checking availability of the Instant Run feature. The fixed is to disable Instant Run:

Windows & Linux:

File -> Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Instant Run.

Mac:

Android Studio -> Preferences -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Instant Run.

Thanks to @pophus for mentioning this.

Use this Steps If you are using a butterknife:-

If you are using the new Jack compiler with version 2.2.0 or newer, you do not need the 'android-apt' plugin and can instead replace apt with annotationProcessor when declaring the compiler dependency.

That is, remove

classpath 'com.neenbedankt.gradle.plugins:android-apt:1.8'

from your main gradle file

And remove

apply plugin: 'android-apt'

from your main module file

and replace

apt 'com.jakewharton:butterknife-compiler:8.4.0'

with

annotationProcessor 'com.jakewharton:butterknife-compiler:8.4.0'

Answer 3

I encountered this error in Android Studio 2.2, in my case it was cause by AS checking availability of the Instant Run feature. I fixed it by disabling Instant Run:

Android Studio -> Preferences -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Instant Run

Answer 4

just close instant run

Windows File -Settings- Build, Execution, Deployment - Instant Run.

MAC Android Studio -> Preferences -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Instant Run.

Answer 5

I ran in the same error on a very old project. Since Android Studio 3.5 does not have the Instant Run Option anymore, I required a different solution.

It turned out, that I had to change the gradle version manually in the Project Settings. I used the version a New Project would use automatically, since the dropdowns were empty.

In my case, it was Plugin Version 3.5.1 and Gradle Version 5.4.1.

After that I started a Build - Clean Project and everything turned out fine.

Answer 6

On Windows it is

File / Settings/ Build, Execution, Deployment / Instant Run.

Uncheck Enable Instant Run to hot swap code...
