Version of Realm and tooling

Realm version(s): 5.9.0

Realm Sync feature enabled: Yes

Android Studio version: 3.2.1

Android Build Tools version: 26.0.1

Gradle version: com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1

[Zhuinden]

What is the class that triggers this exception? The exception comes from Javassist, which is a library that Realm uses.

[cmelchior]

Yes, we would need to know the source code that fails to compile. Also which version of Java are you using?

But I would start by doing a full clean and rebuild and see if it fixes the problem.

[lxfeng]

I compiled it using Java 1.8 and added this setting in build.gradle:
compileoptions {
Sourcecompatibility 1.8
Targetcompatibility 1.8
}.
After removing this setting: transformclasseswithrealmtransformerfordebug did not have another error, but the lambda expression could not be used: "lambda expressions is not supported at
Language level ' 7 ' "

[lxfeng]

This is my Java version information.
java version "1.8.0_161"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_161-b12)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.161-b12, mixed mode)

[cmelchior]

Yes, you need

compileoptions {
Sourcecompatibility 1.8
Targetcompatibility 1.8
}

If you want to use lamdas.

I assume the above answered your question. If not feel free to reopen this issue. Closing.
