Kotlin Dagger2 - cannot find symbol DataBindingComponent

Question

I'm trying to use Dagger2 with Kotlin but getting an untraceable error. I've tried many ways to resolve this problem but all doesn't work. This is my stacktrack by ./gradlew build --stacktrace command:

                android:layout_width="@dimen/dimen_120"
                android:layout_marginTop="@dimen/dimen_15"
                android:onClick="@{() -> viewModel.onRetryClick()}"
                android:text="@string/retry"
                android:textSize="@dimen/text_size_18" />
        </LinearLayout>
    </android.support.v7.widget.CardView>

</layout>

I've already tried to clean and rebuild the project but it didn't work. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

Remove this line : kapt "com.android.databinding:compiler:3.1.4" because it's included with the new version.

Rarely if it doesn't work change kapt for annotationProcessor
