Question

This morning I made an update to android studio from 3.0.1 to 3.1.0. After updating the gradle to latest version I still get build error regarding

Answer 1

I had the same issue as @Marian Pavel where my project couldn't compile the databinding components unless I had the class thats used in databinding in the root folder.

I fixed the issue by doing this:

Android Studio: 3.2.1 stable

**project build.gradle**
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'

**module build.gradle**
apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt'
kapt "androidx.databinding:databinding-compiler:3.2.1"

**gradle.properties**
android.databinding.enableV2=false
