AS 编译异常 Unable to load class 'javax.xml.bind.JAXBException'.

问题描述

升级AS 4.2 之后，编译不通过，出现如下异常

Unable to load class 'javax.xml.bind.JAXBException'.
This is an unexpected error. Please file a bug containing the idea.log file.

解决办法：

update gradle build tool version in project level gradle

升级gradle到4.2.0以后的版本

dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.2.0'
}

and then Android Studio will download and change your gradle-wrapper.properties file

distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-6.7.1-all.zip

Sync project, everything is OK.
