My Database Class

@Database(entities = {TaskEntry.class},version = 1,exportSchema = false)

@TypeConverters(DateConverter.class) public abstract class AppDatabase extends RoomDatabase {

private static final String LOG_TAG=AppDatabase.class.getSimpleName();
private static final Object LOCK=new Object();
private static final String DATABASE_NAME="todolist";
private static AppDatabase mInstance;

public static AppDatabase getInstance(Context context){

    if(mInstance==null){
        synchronized (LOCK){
            Log.d(LOG_TAG,"Creating new database instance");
            mInstance= Room.databaseBuilder(context.getApplicationContext(),
                    AppDatabase.class,AppDatabase.DATABASE_NAME)
                    .allowMainThreadQueries()
                    .build();
        }
    }

Answer 1

In your gradle dependencies, do you use this?

implementation "androidx.room:room-runtime:$room_version"
annotationProcessor "androidx.room:room-compiler:$room_version"

If so, replace it with:

    implementation 'android.arch.persistence.room:runtime:1.1.1'
    annotationProcessor 'android.arch.persistence.room:compiler:1.1.1'

Answer 2

you might be missing the dependency ...

 androidx.core:core:1.0.0

which provides androidx.core.app.ActivityManagerCompat.
