Dagger 2 component not generated

In my module, in my base Application class

component = DaggerCompClassComponent.builder()
                .classModule(new ModuleClass()).build();

it can not find DaggerCompClassComponent.

I have on module build.gradle

apply plugin: 'com.neenbedankt.android-apt'
.........................
apt 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.8'
compile 'com.google.dagger:dagger:2.8'
provided 'javax.annotation:jsr250-api:1.0'

and in Project build.gradle,

 classpath 'com.neenbedankt.gradle.plugins:android-apt:1.8'

I have done build / rebuild / clean / restart project. I have a Component class where I inject objects and a ModuleClass where I provide objects to inject.

What can be the cause for not generating Dagger Component . class ?

EDIT:

This is my ModuleClass, adnotated with @Module:

@Provides
@Singleton
public Interceptor provideInterceptor() {
    return new Interceptor() {
        @Override
        public Response intercept(Chain chain) throws IOException {
            Request.Builder builder = chain.request().newBuilder();

            builder.addHeader("AppName-Android", BuildConfig.VERSION_NAME + "-" + BuildConfig.VERSION_CODE)
                    .addHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");

            return chain.proceed(builder.build());
        }
    };
}

@Provides
@Singleton
OkHttpClient provideOkHttpClient(Interceptor interceptor) {
    OkHttpClient.Builder builder = new OkHttpClient.Builder();
    builder.interceptors().add(interceptor);
    return builder.build();
}

@Provides
@Singleton
Retrofit provideRetrofit(OkHttpClient client) {
    return new Retrofit.Builder()
            .baseUrl(BaseApplication.getRes().getString(R.string.api_base_url))
            .addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
            .client(client)
            .build();
}

@Provides
@Singleton
WebServiceCall provideWebService(Retrofit retrofit) {
    return retrofit.create(WebServiceCall.class);
}

And this is my Component Class:

@Component(modules = ModuleClass.class)
@Singleton
public interface ComponentClass {

    void inject(Interceptor o);
    void inject(OkHttpClient o);
    void inject(Retrofit o);
    void inject(WebServiceCall o);

}

When developing on Kotlin, you should add the following lines next to their annotationProcessor counterparts:

kapt 'com.google.dagger:dagger-android-processor:2.15'
kapt 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.15'

and add apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt' at the start of the same file.

That section looks like this for me:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt' // <- Add this line
apply plugin: 'io.fabric'

Update (March 29, 2020)

Inside your app-level build.gradle inside dependencies block, add these lines:

     //dagger2
     api 'com.google.dagger:dagger:2.24'
     api 'com.google.dagger:dagger-android:2.24'
     api 'com.google.dagger:dagger-android-support:2.24'

     annotationProcessor 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.24'
     kapt 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.24'

     annotationProcessor 'com.google.dagger:dagger-android-processor:2.24'
     kapt 'com.google.dagger:dagger-android-processor:2.24'

     compileOnly 'javax.annotation:jsr250-api:1.0'
     implementation 'javax.inject:javax.inject:1'

Inside android block of app-level build.gradle,

kapt {
        generateStubs = true
    }

At the top of the app-level build.gradle, Do this in exactly below order.

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android-extensions'

Finally, You need to configure Annotation Process as provided in the screenshot below. You can do this File>Other Settings>Settings for New Projects>search"Annotation processor"

After this, do from Menu Build > Rebuild. You are done!

Test:

@Component
public interface ApplicationComponent {

}

Now, you can use DaggerApplicationComponent that was generated at compile-time for your ApplicationComponent interface.

public class MyApplication extends Application {

    ApplicationComponent applicationComponent = DaggerApplicationComponent.create();


}

Maybe you forgot to annotate ModuleClass with @Module ?

If you have several modules in your AndroidStudio (modules in terms of Android Studio, not Dagger), another possible reason of fail is that you've forgot to put annotation processors into the all modules' build.gradle.

We've divided our app into several modules, updated dependencies from using implementation to using api but forgot to handle annotation processors accordingly.

So, you can have this lines only in a root module:

api 'com.google.dagger:dagger-android:2.16'
// if you use the support libraries
api 'com.google.dagger:dagger-android-support:2.16'

But this ones should be specified in all modules dependencies:

annotationProcessor 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.16'
// if you use injections to Android classes
annotationProcessor 'com.google.dagger:dagger-android-processor:2.16'

If Dagger2 can not generate its components it means that your code have some errors with Scopes/Modules. Check our your @Provides/Inject methods.

UPD:

You should inject your components into cases where you need instances of classes provided by module.

like

inject(MainActivity main);
