Description

When Java 8 and Jack Compilation is being used then its unable to compile this library. If Java 8 has to be used then its necessary now to enable Jack Compiler. I am in need to use both the SmartTabLayout library and Java 8. It would be awesome if this library can resolve those errors

Research direction
Investigate the build configuration for use of Jack compiler in Android builds. Check the library's build.gradle files for compatibility with Java 8 and Jack. Consider whether the issue can be resolved by disabling Jack or using a newer build system like D8/R8. Review comments on the issue for any suggested workarounds.
