i tried to use the kotlin sdk but result is same
Update : fixed it by updating realm plugin 10.14.1-transformer-api-SNAPSHOT
Update 21/04/2023 :
This should be fixed with 10.15.1 which was just released. or any later release. update your realm classpath in build.gradle to be :
classpath "io.realm:realm-gradle-plugin:10.17.0"
========================================================
After this update you may encounter another issues regarding your JDK:
Cause: class io.realm.processor.Utils (in unnamed module @0x38d68d7c) cannot access class com.sun.tools.javac.code.Symbol$ClassSymbol (in module jdk.compiler) because module jdk.compiler does not export com.sun.tools.javac.code to unnamed module @0x38d68d7c
solved by editing org.gradle.jvmargs property in gradle.properties :
org.gradle.jvmargs= ... --add-opens=jdk.compiler/com.sun.tools.javac.code=ALL-UNNAMED
