@ContributesAndroidInjector : error: XYZController is not a framework type

[PaulWoitaschek]

I would like to use @ContributesAndroidInjectir with Conductor. Currently it fails because it's not a framework type

-> https://github.com/google/dagger/blob/bb2d3a9f142f91156cfa39d5d5894ade0e146c4c/java/dagger/android/processor/AndroidInjectorDescriptor.java#L160

I ask myself if we could overcome this by using the dagger package.

Check out my fork:
https://github.com/sevar83/conductor-dagger

You'll have to import 2 additional artifacts with JitPack:

compile 'com.github.sevar83.conductor-dagger:annotation:2.1.4'
annotationProcessor 'com.github.sevar83.conductor-dagger:processor:2.1.4'

If you use kotlin you should replace annotationProcessor with kapt and add apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt' on top.

@Module
public abstract class ControllerBindModule {

  @ScreenScope
  @ContributesControllerInjector(modules = {SimpleModule.class})
  abstract SimpleController simpleController();
}

It work except that the generated module classes must be added manually one by one in the AppComponent's modules list. For some unknown reason it doesn't find them if you just add ControllerBindModule. Look at the sample to get idea what I'm talking about. Now implementing a new Conductor Controller requires just 3-4 lines of code. If @Bodo1981 wishes, let's integrate it in this library or even better - in the Conductor main repo, if they accept contributions.

Hi @PaulWoitaschek,

I am seeing a the exact same error in my application while using the @ContributesAndroidInjector. Were you able to find out what this means? If yes, could you please provide some ideas to address the issue?

Thanks!
