Compilation exception when Jack is enabled

Question

I am using Gradle 2.14.1 and Android-Gradle plugin 2.2.3 on Android Studio 2.2.3. in a multi-module app. Enabling Jack throws the following exception (stacktrace included) :

Executing tasks: [:MyApp:assembleDebug]

Configuration on demand is an incubating feature.       //disabling CoD does not resolve the issue
Incremental java compilation is an incubating feature.  //I am unable to disable incremental compilation

I am unable to post build.gradle because of 30K char limit. Can post if requested. compile and build SDK version is 25. multiDexEnabled is true.

Are you by any chance using butterknife? github.com/JakeWharton/butterknife/issues/673 — Carmen, Commented Dec 7, 2016 at 20:42
Sorry, I see they seem to have fixed (or worked around) the issue in Butterknife. But in that issue, you see a link to an issue opened for jack: code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=218017 in which the developers say it's working as intended, and it's not supported to use libraries from com.sun.*. Maybe some other library is doing this? — Carmen, Commented Dec 7, 2016 at 20:51
@Carmen I don't use butterknife or any other com.sun.* libraries directly. Transitively - maybe yes. But there's no way to determine which library is causing this issue. I have more than 20 libraries in use. — Dev, Commented Dec 8, 2016 at 17:34

I had a similar problem. I disabled incremental option:

 compileOptions {
    sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    incremental false
   }

And I Enabled "Dex In Process" for faster app builds. Add this line to gradle.properties:

   org.gradle.jvmargs = -Xmx5120m

I had the same problem and I solved with the incremental false! Could you please explain me what it does?

This issue is a conflict between antivirus and Android Studio. In my case using Avira , Windows Defender Windows 10 and Android Studio 2.2. You can add android studio process in the exception list of either programs.
