Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/tytydraco/LADB/issues/11

I just cloned this repo and am trying to build it in Android Studio, but I immediately get this error:

Build file 'C:\Users\Elija_000\git\LADB\app\build.gradle' line: 2

An exception occurred applying plugin request [id: 'com.android.application']
> Failed to apply plugin 'com.android.internal.application'.
   > java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: java.lang.invoke.MethodHandles.privateLookupIn(java.lang.Class, java.lang.invoke.MethodHandles$Lookup)

Any ideas how to fix this? I've tried rebuilding the gradle cache and .gradle folder, and it looks like all the dependencies are up-to-date, but I'm not an expert and I could be missing something.

Make sure you are using Android Studio Canary!

Do you know what version(s) are compatible, by any chance? I try not to use the latest canary for big things like AS, just because I don't need the added stress of IDE bugs on top of my regular code bugs. If there's an older Canary or Beta version that has whatever's necessary to make this code run, that would be preferable.

Not sure about that one. Try downgrading the gradle versions.
