Java – Realm android, RealmTransformer seems to have no application

I’m a newbie.

I use:

• Android Studio 2.2.3
• Level: 2.14.1
• Realm plugin: “classpath” io.realm:realm-gradle-plugin:2.2.1″

But when I call Realm.init(context) it throws an exception; In the onCreate of my activity.

Log:

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

       super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
       setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

Realm.init(this); crashing line
   }
}

Build.gradle module level:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'realm-android'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 25
    buildToolsVersion "25.0.2"
    defaultConfig {

         Enabling multidex support.

      }
  }

compileOptions {
       targetCompatibility 1.8
       sourceCompatibility 1.8
   }
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    androidTestCompile('com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2', {
    exclude group: 'com.android.support', module: 'support-annotations'

Thank you in advance for your help.

Jack does not use the transformation API in Gradle.

Therefore, Realm-Transformers that rely on the Transform API cannot be used with Jack.

Use Retrolambda instead of Jack to support Java 8 features.
