Gradle Retrolambda Plugin

Maven Central

This plugin will automatically build your java or android project with
retrolambda, giving you lambda goodness on java 6 or 7. It relies on the
wonderful retrolambda by Esko
Luontola.

Note: The minimum android gradle plugin is 1.5.0 and the minimum gradle plugin is 2.5.

Usage

  1. Download jdk8 and set it as your default.

  2. Add the following to your build.gradle

    buildscript {
       repositories {
          mavenCentral()
       }
    
       dependencies {
          classpath 'me.tatarka:gradle-retrolambda:3.7.1'
       }
    }
    
    // Required because retrolambda is on maven central
    repositories {
       mavenCentral()
    }
    
    apply plugin: 'com.android.application' //or apply plugin: 'java'
    apply plugin: 'me.tatarka.retrolambda'
    

    alternatively, you can use the new plugin syntax for gradle 2.1+

    plugins {
       id "me.tatarka.retrolambda" version "3.7.1"
    }
    
  3. There is no step three!

The plugin will compile the source code with java8 and then replace the class
files with the output of retrolambda.

Configuration

You can add a block like the following to configure the plugin:

retrolambda {
  javaVersion JavaVersion.VERSION_1_6
  jvmArgs '-arg1', '-arg2'
  defaultMethods false
  incremental true
}
  • javaVersion Set the java version to compile to. The default is 6. Only 5, 6 or 7 are accepted.
  • include 'Debug', 'Release' Sets which sets/variants to run through
    retrolambda. The default is all of them.
  • exclude 'Test' Sets which sets/variants to not run through retrolambda. Only
    one of either include or exclude should be defined.
  • jvmArgs Add additional jvm args when running retrolambda.
  • defaultMethods Turn on default and static methods in interfaces support. Note: due to a
    limitation in retrolamba, this will set incremental to false. The default is false.
  • incremental Setting this to false forces all of your class files to be run through retrolambda
    instead of only the ones that have changed. The default is true.

Using a Different Version of the retrolambda.jar

The default version of retrolambda used is
'net.orfjackal.retrolambda:retrolambda:2.5.6'. If you want to use a different
one, you can configure it in your dependencies.

dependencies {
  // Latest one on maven central
  retrolambdaConfig 'net.orfjackal.retrolambda:retrolambda:+'
  // Or a local version
  // retrolambdaConfig files('libs/retrolambda.jar')
}

Deprecated Features

If you are running with java 6 or 7 you should really consider updating. However, you may use the
below configuration instead.

Set the environment variable JAVA8_HOME to point to the java 8 jdk. Alternatively, you can set the
jdk property.

retrolambda {
  jdk System.getenv("JAVA8_HOME")
}

You can force unit tests to be run with an older version of java by setting
JAVA5_HOME/JAVA6_HOME/JAVA7_HOME or with the oldJdk property.

retrolambda {
  oldJdk System.getenv("JAVA6_HOME")
}

Android Studio Setup

Add these lines to your build.gradle to inform the IDE of the language level.

android {
  compileOptions {
    sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
  }
}

Proguard

This plugin is fully compatible with proguard (since v2.4.0). In your proguard file, add

-dontwarn java.lang.invoke.*
-dontwarn **$$Lambda$*

Known Issues

Lint fails on java files that have lambdas.

First try updating to the latest version of the android gradle plugin. Newer versions of lint are
compatible with java 8 sources. If you can't for some reason, you can still use the
experimental fork to fix the issue.

Using Google Play Services causes retrolambda to fail

Version 5.0.77 contains bytecode that is incompatible with retrolambda. This should be fixed in
newer versions of play services, if you can update, that should be the preferred solution. To work
around this issue, you can either use an earlier version like 4.4.52 or add -noverify to the jvm
args. See orfjackal/retrolambda#25 for more
information.

retrolambda {
  jvmArgs '-noverify'
}
