When compiling the project with the new gradle2.0.0-alpha pluggin I'm getting.

java.lang.RuntimeException: 
  Unable to instantiate application com.android.tools.fd.runtime.BootstrapApplication: 
  java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: 
    Didn't find class "com.android.tools.fd.runtime.BootstrapApplication" on path:
    DexPathList[[zip file "/data/app/com.inoutdelivery.enfesta-1/base.apk"],nativeLibraryDirectories=[/vendor/lib, /system/lib]]

Any ideas?

  • sorry about the issues you are having with InstantRun. There is already a bug file for this issue at https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=195044 please update it with your issues. it would help tremendously if a reproducible test case could be provided. – Jerome Dochez Jan 19 '16 at 17:51

On a non-Kotlin Android project, I was running into this same problem. I solved it by turning Instant Run off (Preferences -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Instant Run -> Enable Instant Run), running my app, and then turning Instant Run back on.

Instant Run isn't working for me as advertised, but this at least got the app to build on 2.0.0-alpha.
