I'm not going to win with slack's formatting 😞

you can switch to BDDMockito, it uses

(same library, just different import)

or you can add one line method with inline to your tests as an alias for

Is there some way I get quick-documentation to work properly for the Kotlin stdlib functions? (specifically for Android Studio 3.0 beta). Is there some magic gradle incantation that is required to make Studio understand where to find the Kotlin stdlib documentation (or source).

stdlib sources available for me without additional configuration, just with the latest Kotlin plugin

@gildor What version of Studio are you using? Also, do you doing any magic other than the simple

apply plugin: "kotlin-android"

3.0-beta2, Kotlin plugin 1.1.4. No magic, only stdlib in dependencies

@gildor That's interesting. I used 1.1.3-2, and changing the ext.kotlin_version to 1.1.4 gives me warning messages saying that my "plugin version is different from the bundled version". You don't happen to have source available for the project where it works for you, so I can compare?

You can use 1.1.4 plugin with older versions of Kotlin

I have no problems with 1.1.3-2 and 1.1.4

What was the name of that interesting android database thing again? Re-something?

Ah, thanks. Would you still recommend it or is there something better/more kotliny by now?

Room is too buggy yet

@michaelzinn consider using SQLBrite, it supports kotlin and rx, however you need to deal with ordinary SQLOpenHelper boilerplate)

Oh, right, being rx compatible would be a big plus.

Room rx compatible as well

Even if now Room has bugs I still think that it’s good investment for a new project IMHO. Room has a nice architecture and pushes really good solutions, also it supported by Google

Google failed with databinding, hope they will not fail Room at least

Completely disagree with this statement

@gildor Thank you. Upgrading both Kotlin and the IntelliJ plugin to 1.1.4 made it work.

@denis.shakinov How did they fail with databinding?

I tried it a year ago, then tried about a month ago, nothing changed

It still doesn’t support kotlin, i have to keep java classes for binding

DB supports Kotlin for ViewModels and BindingAdapters on Kotlin, without any problems

we have Kotlin + Java project and Databindings

@denis.shakinov I would beg to differ, I have about 3 different projects in pure Kotlin all using Databinding without any issues.

The only extra effort other than the standard things was to add kapt and the databinding compiler as kapt dependency

we use only kapt too
