How can I clear the kapt cache? I use room and it always generates a dao class that was from another branch. When I delete the generated class it generates it again and then fails the build beause it references classes that do not exist.

You can run kapt task with --rerun-tasks flag, perhaps?

Thanks I wiped everything and will try that the next time 🙂

I usually run clean paired with --no-build-cache. But I think --rerun-tasks flag could work (thanks @wasyl, I did not know about that flag before)
