I'm trying to set up an Android Library module which depends on two other library modules. We use android.support.annotation framework to add annotations on some of the methods. When I try to build the aar, this is what I get:
:hce_entry:extractReleaseAnnotations FAILED
Error:Execution failed for task ':hce_entry:extractReleaseAnnotations'.
> java.lang.NullPointerException (no error message)
I tried to get some more information executing gradle build with --stacktrace option, and this is the output:
...
:hce_entry:extractReleaseAnnotations FAILED
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':hce_entry:extractReleaseAnnotations'.
java.lang.NullPointerException (no error message)
Try:
Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.
Exception is:
org.gradle.api.tasks.TaskExecutionException: Execution failed for task ':hce_entry:extractReleaseAnnotations'.

BUILD FAILED
This is my build.gradle file
apply plugin: 'com.android.library'
android {
compileSdkVersion 19
buildToolsVersion '19.1.0'
buildTypes {
release {
minifyEnabled false
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
}
debug {

}
}
}
dependencies {
compile project(':core')
compile project(':lib')
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:23.2.0'
}
Anyone could give me any advice? I'm a bit lost and could not find anything to solve the problem.
Thank you in advance.
