Question

Im trying to use Dagger 2 on android. I previously had it working and i had an appModule injecting dependencies into specific classes in the app. My Issue is that iam getting th

Answer 1

I had the same problem on my setup, Android Studio 2.2 within the following application class:

public class NetApp extends Application {

    private NetComponent mNetComponent;

    @Override
    public void onCreate() {
        super.onCreate();

        // Dagger%COMPONENT_NAME%
        mNetComponent = DaggerNetComponent.builder()
                // list of modules that are part of this component need to be created here too
                .appModule(new AppModule(this)) // This also corresponds to the name of your module: %component_name%Module
                .netModule(new NetModule("https://api.github.com"))
                .build();

        // If a Dagger 2 component does not have any constructor arguments for any of its modules,
        // then we can use .create() as a shortcut instead:
        //  mNetComponent = com.codepath.dagger.components.DaggerNetComponent.create();
    }

    public NetComponent getNetComponent() {
        return mNetComponent;
    }
}

I'm using the following gradle declaration for dagger 2:

//Dagger 2
// apt command comes from the android-apt plugin
apt 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.7'
compile 'com.google.dagger:dagger:2.7'
provided 'javax.annotation:jsr250-api:1.0'

I could solve the problem by rebuilding the complete project (with errors) and then adding the import of the DaggerNetComponent that was missing before.
