Shout Out to @Rene Spies' answer above, I also got this error while working with databinding. It turns out the build engine doesn't like it when you put the @Bindable annotation on a field in the primary constructor of a data class in Kotlin.

So never do the following,

data class MyAwesomePojo(
    @Bindable
    var firstname: String,
    var lastname: String
)

instead what you need to do is

data class MyCorrectAwesomePojo(
    var lastname: String
):{
    @get:Bindable
    var firstname: String
        set(value){
            field = value
        }
}

Bonus: remember to check for same values before setting value to field if you are trying to use two-way binding like me to prevent infinite looping of setting and getting.
