Libraries using reflection such as annotation processors need to be updated manually to add support for androidx

Question

I have migrated to androidX by using android studio 3.4 and after migrating I'm facing every time this issue. Though I've tried excluding butterknife compilerAnnotation in gradle.properties but that shows WARNING: The option setting 'android.jetifier.blacklist=butterknife.*\.jar' is experimental and unsupported.

I've also updated to the latest butterknife dependency where JakeWharton himself mentioned the issue has been solved and it was jetifier issue. look at this workaround

implementation 'com.jakewharton:butterknife:10.1.0'
annotationProcessor 'com.jakewharton:butterknife-compiler:10.1.0'

In my build.gradle file

    implementation 'androidx.legacy:legacy-support-v4:1.0.0'

so I think this support library causes the issue. I've tried every solutions that comes in google first search result and couldn't solve it.

here is my build.gradle file

buildscript {
    repositories {
        maven { url 'https://maven.fabric.io/public' }
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'io.fabric.tools:gradle:1.+'
    }
}
apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'io.fabric'

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    maven { url 'https://maven.fabric.io/public' }
