:app:hiltJavaCompile... fails with NoSuchElementException: No value present

See original GitHub issue

AGP: 7.0.4 Hilt version: 2.40.5

I’m migrating a project from Dagger to Hilt. I started getting this error during build:

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':app:hiltJavaCompileStagingPhyreWEPlayStoreDebug'.
> java.util.NoSuchElementException: No value present

The message is pretty vague and I have no idea where I messed up. The project is somewhat big, so it’s hard to check everything manually. I noticed that the Hilt_MyApplication is not being generated, however I’m not sure at what phase this should happen.

Having more details when this occurs would be helpful. Meanwhile any suggestions on how to debug it will be appreciated.

Yep, that definitely explains it.

The retention determines where the annotation is stored/accessible (SOURCE < BINARY < RUNTIME). For Dagger, the retention needs to be at least BINARY. If you use SOURCE, then anything that depends on your library will no longer see the annotation since the dependency is passed in as a class file. It’s the same reason I mentioned in https://github.com/google/dagger/issues/3133#issuecomment-1002790894, just a different cause.

Okay, that makes sense. I guess it’s all clear now. Thanks for your assistance!
