Answer 1

I just experienced this myself while checking java16 compatibility with Ankidroid (link because it is open source, you can reproduce yourself if you like) .

I would guess you are attempting to use java16 to compile your app?

As of this writing (April 16, 2021) Android Gradle Plugin is not compatible with java16 - not 4.1.3, 4.2.0-rc01 nor 7.0.0alpha14 (all the current versions as I write this.

If you use java8 or java11 it works.

Android Studio uses java11 internally now for 4.2.x so that is the safest bet at this point for Android development.

I have logged this upstream issue so Google is aware, and others may track it in case there is a good workaround/explanation/reason https://issuetracker.google.com/u/1/issues/186806275

Solved same issue with following commands

cd /Applications/Android\ Studio.app/Contents/jre

ln -s ../jre jdk

ln -s "/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin" jdk

flutter doctor -v

Clean and run it will work.
