Java – Build Error: Jack requires Build Tools 24. 0.0 or later

Build Error: Jack requires Build Tools 24. 0.0 or later… here is a solution to the problem.

Build Error: Jack requires Build Tools 24. 0.0 or later

I’m using the RX library in my android project and for some reason I need to set my build.gradle to:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
compileSdkVersion 23
buildToolsVersion "23.0.3"

defaultConfig {
    applicationId "com.urjapawar.bevyotp"
    minSdkVersion 18
    targetSdkVersion 23
    versionCode 1
    versionName "1.0"
    jackOptions {
        enabled true
    }
}
buildTypes {
    release {
        minifyEnabled false
        proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
    }
}
compileOptions {
    sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
}
}

dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.4.0'
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:23.4.0'
compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:23.4.0'
compile 'io.reactivex:rxandroid:0.24.0'
}

I’ve visited This and this too, but can’t fix it. My project code is
RegisterActivity.java

public class RegisterActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

EditText name,email,phonenumber,city;
Button button;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_register);
    name = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.nameinput);
    email = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.emailinput);
    phonenumber = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.phonenumber);
    city = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.cityName);
    final Pattern emailPattern = Pattern.compile(
            "^[_A-Za-z0-9-\\+]+(\\.[ _A-Za-z0-9-]+)*@"
                    + "[A-Za-z0-9-]+(\\.[ A-Za-z0-9]+)*(\\.[ A-Za-z]{2,})$");

Observable<Boolean> userNameValid = WidgetObservable.text(name) //  [2]
            .map(e -> e.text())
            .map(t -> t.length() != 0);

Observable<Boolean> emailValid = WidgetObservable.text(email)
            .map(e -> e.text())
            .map(t -> emailPattern.matcher(t).matches());

Button registerButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button3);

Observable<Boolean> registerEnabled =
            Observable.combineLatest(userNameValid, emailValid, (a, b) -> a && b);
     registerEnabled.subscribe(enabled -> registerButton.setEnabled(enabled));
    emailValid.distinctUntilChanged()
            .doOnNext(b -> Log.d("[Rx]", "Email " + (b ? " Valid" : "Invalid")))
            .map(b -> b ? Color.BLACK : Color.RED)
            .subscribe(color -> email.setTextColor(color));

userNameValid.distinctUntilChanged()
            .doOnNext(b -> Log.d("[Rx]", "Uname " + (b ? " Valid" : "Invalid")))
            .map(b -> b ? Color.BLACK : Color.RED)
            .subscribe(color -> name.setTextColor(color));

 and registerEnabled

registerEnabled.distinctUntilChanged()
            .doOnNext(b -> Log.d("[Rx]", "Button " + (b ? " Enabled" : "Disabled")))
            .subscribe(enabled -> registerButton.setEnabled(enabled));

}
public void OTPbutton(View view){
    startActivity(new Intent(RegisterActivity.this, ChooseActivity.class));
}

}

Here is the log
Log

Thanks in advance

Solution

As the error says, you have changed buildToolsVersion

buildToolsVersion "23.0.3" 

to

buildToolsVersion "24rc3" this.

or

buildToolsVersion = "24.0.0 rc1" this.
