Error when building on new Android Studio 3.1

Question

I updated Android Studio to 3.1 stable version and get this error, when try to build project. At first there were problems with DataBinding, I fixed them, then I found this issue.

[this is not full version of error logs]

Does anybody find solution?

Answer 1

This recommendations depends, how much complicated your project(these recommendations can be not usefull):

• Update Kotlin plugin to last version

• Remove

  kapt { generateStubs = true }

• If you use databinding, add to gradle.properties this line android.databinding.enableV2=true

• update gradle
• update build tools

Thanks for my coworkers to find these facts

Answer 2

Update your kotlin version "1.2.31" add following dependencies in app level gradle file

compile "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib"

android {
  ...

  sourceSets {
    main.java.srcDirs += 'src/main/kotlin'
  }
}

It may help to you :)
