Cant include ButterKnife into the project. I tried to these lines of code into the gradle but it doesnt work

buildscript { repositories { mavenCentral() } dependencies { classpath 'com.neenbedankt.gradle.plugins:android-apt:1.8' } }

apply plugin: 'com.neenbedankt.android-apt'

dependencies { compile 'com.jakewharton:butterknife:8.0.1' apt 'com.jakewharton:butterknife-compiler:8.0.1' }

Are they in the app's build.gradle file, and not the projects? What error messages are you getting?

I tried to follow the guidelines in here https://github.com/JakeWharton/butterknife#download to install ButterKnife into my project, but they didnt work. I pasted the lines of code that can be found in the "download" section into build.gradle (Module:app), but I got an error. Failed to syn Gradle project "stormy" : could not find com.android.support-annotations: 23.3.0
