getOr, put() and edit() can not resolve in org.androidannotations:androidannotations

Question

In one of my existing projects I already added the following libraries for use annotation shared preference

def AAVersion = "4.6.0"

    dependencies {
    annotationProcessor "org.androidannotations:androidannotations:$AAVersion"
    implementation "org.androidannotations:androidannotations-api:$AAVersion"
    }

Other objects are resolving but it isn't able to put() edit(), getOr() and get(). I manually added the module from below link, but I'm getting the same result

https://github.com/androidannotations/androidannotations

Here is the ISPreferenceUtils class

@SharedPref(value = SharedPref.Scope.UNIQUE)
public interface ISPreferenceUtils {
    @DefaultBoolean(true)
    boolean isFirstTime();

    @DefaultBoolean(false)
    boolean languageSelected();

    @DefaultBoolean(false)
    boolean selected();

    @DefaultString("")
    String selectedLocation();

    @DefaultString(ISConstants.ENGLISH)
    String language();

    @DefaultString("")
    String location();

    @DefaultString("")
    String userName();

    @DefaultString("")
    String userEmail();

    @DefaultString("")
    String sessionId();

    @DefaultString("")
    String apiToken();

    @DefaultString("")
    String mobileNumber();

    @DefaultString("")
    String userImage();

    @DefaultString("")
    String deviceId();

    @DefaultString("")
    String mobile();

    @DefaultString("")
    String userPassword();

    @DefaultInt(0)
    int userId();

    @DefaultInt(0)
    int locationId();

}

preferenceUtils is the object of the ISPreferenceUtils.

Here is my Gradle

I tried a lot but It's not resolving. Can you pls help me.

Hi, can you post the complete gradle file and also the `PreferenceUtils` source? — Vall0n, Jan 20 '20 at 14:24
Hi @Komal, thanks the `PreferenceUtils` looks fine to me. What about your project structure and the build gradle files? Did you use multiple modules (dynamic-feature, library modules) and where did you put the dependency? Is the `PreferenceUtils` in the same module then the class, where you use the grills (`preferenceUtils.userId().put(0)`)? — Vall0n, Jan 21 '20 at 07:32
Which version of the `com.android.tools.build:gradle` plugin did you use? — Vall0n, Jan 21 '20 at 07:33
And try to Build -> Make Project that will invoke annotation processors like AndroidAnnotations — Vall0n, Jan 21 '20 at 07:36
There shall be a generated File `ISPreferenceUtils_` that you should use. (e.g. ` @Pref ISPreferenceUtils_ preferenceUtils;`) See also [here](https://github.com/androidannotations/androidannotations/wiki/SharedPreferencesHelpers#defining-the-preferences) — Vall0n, Jan 21 '20 at 08:31
@Vall0n ISPreferenceUtils_ file is not generating I've created a demo project but the same thing happened. Underscore(_) file is not auto-created. — Komal, Jan 21 '20 at 09:18
I've created the object of the ISPreferenceUtils interface @Pref ISPreferenceUtils preferenceUtils; — Komal, Jan 21 '20 at 09:25
The generated file will be generated when you execute `Make Project` via Android Studio under the `Build` tab. And try to remove `classpath 'com.neenbedankt.gradle.plugins:android-apt:1.4'` from the build gradle because you already use an up to date `'com.android.tools.build:gradle` plugin version. You may also have to add javaCompileOptions depending on buildTypes etc. See [here](https://github.com/androidannotations/androidannotations/wiki/Building-Project-Gradle) — Vall0n, Jan 21 '20 at 09:34
Let us [continue this discussion in chat](https://chat.stackoverflow.com/rooms/206345/discussion-between-komal-and-vall0n). — Komal, Jan 21 '20 at 09:37

you may have to add javaCompileOptions in the defaultConfig section of the app gradle file depending on your build types and flavors.

defaultConfig {
        minSdkVersion 21
        targetSdkVersion 29

        // If you have different applicationIds for buildTypes or productFlavors uncomment this block.
        javaCompileOptions {
            annotationProcessorOptions {
                arguments = ["resourcePackageName": android.defaultConfig.applicationId]
           }
        }
    }
