I recently just started with android development using kotlin so a total noob at android studio too. I am trying to build a super simple HelloWorld app but I got this error:
Annotation processors must be explicitly declared now. The following dependencies on the compile classpath are found to contain annotation processor. Please add them to the annotationProcessor configuration. - jetified-kotlin-compiler-embeddable-1.3.72.jar (kotlin-compiler-embeddable-1.3.72.jar) Alternatively, set android.defaultConfig.javaCompileOptions.annotationProcessorOptions.includeCompileClasspath = true to continue with previous behavior. Note that this option is deprecated and will be removed in the future. See https://developer.android.com/r/tools/annotation-processor-error-message.html for more details.
but when I added the annotationprocessor at the end of my dependencies like:
dependencies {
implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
implementation "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk7:$kotlin_version"
implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.1.0'
implementation 'androidx.core:core-ktx:1.2.0'
implementation 'androidx.constraintlayout:constraintlayout:1.1.3'
testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12'
androidTestImplementation 'androidx.test.ext:junit:1.1.1'
androidTestImplementation 'androidx.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.2.0'
annotationProcessor "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-compiler-embeddable:$kotlin_version"
}
I encountered a new error instead when I tried to build:
