Answer 2

Using IntelliJ IDEA 2019.1 and Gradle 5.4.1, this seems to be enough:

plugins {
    id 'java'
}

version '1.0-SNAPSHOT'

sourceCompatibility = 1.8

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    testImplementation group: 'junit', name: 'junit', version: '4.12'

    implementation 'com.google.dagger:dagger:2.23.1'
    annotationProcessor 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.23.1'
}

I don't know the minimal versions for which this solution works, though.
