Android Studio 3.3 Beta 4 is now available in the Beta channel.
If you have Android Studio set up to receive updates on the Beta channel, you can get the update by choosing Help > Check for Updates (Android Studio > Check for Updates on Mac). Otherwise, you can download it here.
This update includes the following bug fixes:
- Builds created using Bazel Build would throw "Build Event Protocol update failed" errors.
- Jetifier caused AAB builds to fail and forced Dagger 2.16 to be used, even when 2.17 was declared as a dependency.
- Composite builds would fail on the Windows platform.
- Timber would cause Lint checks to occur on projects where Lint checks weren't defined.
- Project compilation would sometimes fail because of an error accessing manifest fields using reflection.
- J-style lambdas would create self-recursion, leading to null-pointer exceptions and stack overflows.
