Error: Cannot find character class BR

I am having a problem building a library project. I created an application project and then converted it to a library. I am unable to generate the .aar package. I found several answers here that talk about modifying the apt neenbedankt plugin by adding databinding: compiler , but that didn't work for me at all. Some might say the dagger is the problem, but I'm not sure about that. Please, help.
