Execution failed for task app:transformClassesWithDesugarForDebug error on Android Studio 3.0 Beta 2

Question

I have migrated my project from Android Studio 2.3.3 to Android Studio 3.0 Beta 2 and now my project won\'t run.

I get the following message in the console:

Answer 1

Error:Execution failed for task ':app:transformClassesWithDesugarForDebug'.

com.android.build.api.transform.TransformException: java.lang.RuntimeException: com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException: Error while executing java process with main class com.google.devtools.build.android.desugar.Desugar with arguments

Open your build.gradle and use below

android {
    compileSdkVersion 26
    buildToolsVersion "26.0.1"

Then Clean-Rebuild-Run .
