I try to compile an Android system app (Jetpack Compose) in AOSP 13 for Android Automotive. I have success to do that until i try to insert Hilt functionalities.

Researching online, I found that this dependency could be added to the list of libraries: "hilt_android". But when i try to compile i receive this error:

The problem is that i don’t use Gradle buil system, the error message suggest to use a Gradle plugin.

This is the Android.bp file:

android_app {
    name: "MyComposeAppCarProperty",
    certificate: "platform",
    manifest: "AndroidManifest.xml",
    min_sdk_version: "33",
    java_version: "1.8",
    platform_apis: true,
    compile_multilib: "both",
    optimize: {
        enabled: false,
    },
    dex_preopt: {
        enabled: false,
    },
    srcs: [
        "src/**/*.kt",
        "src/**/*.java",
    ],
    resource_dirs: [
        "res",
    ],
    static_libs: [
            // Other libs
            // ...

            // Hilt
            "hilt_android",
        ],
}

I tried to resolve this error but could not. Does anyone know how to solve it. It seems that the problem is not in the library import but in the annotation interpreter.
