NoSuchMethodError using @Parcelize Annotation in Kotlin

Question

I'm currently trying out the experimental (which might be why it's not working...) @Parcelize annotation to generate Parcelable code. Most types seem to be working fine, but I'm having issues with Serializables throwing a NoSuchMethodError:

   10-05 13:55:18.549 20808-20808/com.app E/AndroidRuntime: FATAL EXCEPTION: main
   Process: com.app, PID: 20808
   java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: No virtual method writeSerializable(Ljava/util/Date;)V in class Landroid/os/Parcel;
   or its super classes (declaration of 'android.os.Parcel' appears in /system/framework/framework.jar)

I know I could fix this by changing the Date objects to Strings, but would rather not. Has anyone else run into this issue that could provide a viable workaround other than using Strings?

If needed, here's the implementation for reference:

@Parcelize
data class Job(val id: String,
               val description: String,
               val state: String,
               val job_type: String?,
               val close_on: Date?,
               val posted_on: Date?) : Parcelable

Answer 1

Didn't find anything on SO, so rather than deleting I'll leave it here for reference incase anyone else runs into it. It looks like this has been logged as a bug that affects 1.1.4 and 1.1.50. (I was using 1.1.4).

Looks like it's been fixed for versions 1.1.6 and above.
