UPDATE: Due to an issues with the Android Plugin for Gradle in Beta 3 (64527520), we've pulled it down and recommend that you not accept the update. If you already did, you can go back to Beta 2 by downloading here.

This release fixes an issue which resulted in the compiler throwing a ClassNotFoundException when you enable Java 8 language features and specify minSdkVersion 19 or higher—this also caused some code analysis tools, such as ProGuard, to fail. For more information, see issue #64527520.

Known issue: If you have an existing Android Studio project that's using an alpha version of Android plugin 3.0.0 (such as 3.0.0-alpha9), you may get the following error when you migrate to Android plugin 3.0.0-beta1 (or higher) and sync your project: Gradle project refresh failed.

Resolve this issue selecting Build > Clean Project from the menu bar—you need to perform this action only once for each project. You can then sync your project files with Gradle by clicking Sync Project from the toolbar.

• Fixed an issue where using the Kotlin plugin crashes with a classloading issue.
• Fixed an issue where the menu bar no longer appears. (Issue #63743086)
