android.dexOptions.incremental property is deprecated

Question

When trying to run gradle build, I get following warning in Android Studio 2.2 :

Warning:The android.dexOptions.incremental property is deprecat

Answer 1

By default incremental is turned on Java compilation in 2.1.0-rc1 (2016/4/22) or later. So its redundant to declare it in build.gradle file.
