JoeHegarty · Answer

One other thing to check are you sure IntelliJ has the same version of the Kotlin plugin as you are using in Gradle `Tools gt Kotlin gt Configure Kotlin Plugin Updates`

JoeHegarty · Answer

We had a really weird issue where imports were not showing up and the debugger wouldn t start last week and we tracked it down to that

JoeHegarty · Answer

`1 2 21` from your gradle is pretty old `1 2 50` is latest so you might want to bump that and then ensure you have `1 2 50` in IntelliJ

ananthraghuraman · Answer

< Andrey> checked JDK ensured project is re imported properly still same issue

ananthraghuraman · Answer

< JoeHegarty> Yeah I have an older version because the latest kotlin stdlib jdk8 wanted 1 2 51 version of kotlin stdlib and 1 2 51 version of everything else This bleeding edge version seems to be in ideadev

ananthraghuraman · Answer

But I will try again

gildor · Answer

Ideadev Do you use not stable version of Idea

gildor · Answer

Use 1 2 50 1 2 51 is not released officially

JoeHegarty · Answer

Yeh and as I say we had an issue where the debugger wouldn t start imports wouldn t resolve etc And it was because Gradle Maven were at 1 2 50 and the plugin was a previous version It took several folks on our team out for like half a day

JoeHegarty · Answer

Need to dig into it a bit more

gildor · Answer

I never had issues with different versions of Kotlin compiler stdlib and idea plugin But it can be a bug on a specific version of plugin itself

JoeHegarty · Answer

Yeh first time we ve seen it as well
