Problem

When I click on the debug icon in Android Studio, I get this NullPointerException from R8.

But...

When I try to investigate further by running gradlew from the command line, there are no reported errors.

./gradlew :app:assembleDebug

Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 6.0.
Use '--warning-mode all' to show the individual deprecation warnings.
See https://docs.gradle.org/5.4.1/userguide/command_line_interface.html#sec:command_line_warnings

So I'm at a loss for how to proceed. This is a commercial media app that had passed beta testing and was supposed to be released... but now this has me stymied.

Things I've tried so far...

  1. clean and rebuild
  2. File -> Invalidate Caches & Restart
  3. Wiping project .gradle and user/.gradle caches, clean and rebuild
  4. enableMultiDex = true in the gradle.config
  5. Increasing JVM memory from 2MB to 4MB
  6. Rebooting the computer

Questions

  1. How to resolve this exception and get un-stuck?
  2. Is it my code or an R8 bug?
  3. Why can't I reproduce the error from the command line?
  4. Is Android Studio running gradle with extra flags its not reporting?
