Warning about variant.getJavaCompile() being obsolete

[roskakori]

Thanks for the nice integration of FindBugs. However, once I add

buildscript {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        // ...
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.chaitanyapramod.gradle:findbugs-android:1.0'
        // ...
    }
}
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'com.chaitanyapramod.findbugs-android'

to my build.gradle the following warning shows up:

WARNING: API 'variant.getJavaCompile()' is obsolete and has been replaced with 'variant.getJavaCompileProvider()'.
It will be removed at the end of 2019.
For more information, see https://d.android.com/r/tools/task-configuration-avoidance.

After removing the "apply", the warning is gone.

Considering that "end of 2019" is in a few months this probably should be addressed in the near future.
