when I try to use databinding it generates `android support

Question

when I try to use databinding it generates `android support constraint ConstraintLayout` instead of `androidx` equivalent

rkeazor · Answer

if your using databinding why would you be using android kotlin extenstions

rkeazor · Answer

thats what its suppose to do

kartikpatodi · Answer

It is a java + kotlin project

rkeazor · Answer

yea but what is the point in using both

rkeazor · Answer

i mean databinding and the extentsions

kartikpatodi · Answer

Well even though i remove extentions then also it should genetate classes with imports according to androidx namespace

kartikpatodi · Answer

For constraint layout

rkeazor · Answer

gotcha although im not sure what you mean If your using kotlin extentsions than it goes by ID its not possible for you to just type an id and than it auto import an a view group

rkeazor · Answer

unless your id is ConstraintLayout

rkeazor · Answer

rkeazor · Answer

i have no idea what your talking about joy what does dagger have to do with databinding

kartikpatodi · Answer

No prob let it be

rkeazor · Answer

hehe just playing dude if you post some sample code maybe it will give more context

kartikpatodi · Answer

gt i have no idea what your talking about joy what does dagger have to do with databinding Sorry it is not mixed issues of two different projects maybe should take the day off

gildor · Answer

Android Extensions is not replacement for Databinding library Binding library can do much much more than just search for views by id

kartikpatodi · Answer

< gildor> can you explain the behavior in the main issue

gildor · Answer

Actually really interesting issue Do you use androidx constraintlayout but binding generates android support Do you use jettifier Are you sure that it s not a problem of some of your binding adapters I just don t think that binding library knows anything about Constraint Layout maybe some bug of jettifier with code generation

gildor · Answer

If you have reproduction steps please let me know I would like to vote up this issue

gildor · Answer

I would like but our app with bindings is not use androidx yet but another app already on androidx without issues but no bindings there

kartikpatodi · Answer

actually i am not familiar with the data binding library I am trying to implement this codelab <https github com googlecodelabs android build an app architecture components>

kartikpatodi · Answer

I bumped up the dependencies all the way to support AS 3 2 alpha17

kartikpatodi · Answer

and refactored to androidX

kartikpatodi · Answer

please try and let me know < gildor>

kartikpatodi · Answer

kartikpatodi · Answer

and thats also a different thing

rkeazor · Answer

what

rkeazor · Answer

lol

kartikpatodi · Answer

rkeazor · Answer

my bad i see your saying that when your trying to import the constraint layout it doesn t show

rkeazor · Answer

as within the new package structure

kartikpatodi · Answer

yes and btw android kotlin extention is `kotlinx` and not `androidx`

rkeazor · Answer

are you able to type the import in manurally

kartikpatodi · Answer

yes but is says don t change the generated classes

rkeazor · Answer

Did you do Refactor gt Refactor android x in Android studio

kartikpatodi · Answer

Yes

rkeazor · Answer

do you see the constraint layout dependency when you do that

rkeazor · Answer

it should give you the option to migrate If your still having a issue after that than do file a bug report its still fairly new

kartikpatodi · Answer

It chanded the dependencies throughout the project but not in the generated classes

rkeazor · Answer

just do a clean gt rebuild

kartikpatodi · Answer

Did that

rkeazor · Answer

generated classes from Databinding

rkeazor · Answer

yea just file a report of what your going thru

kartikpatodi · Answer

Right

rkeazor · Answer

also make sure the support dependency isn t in your build gradle

gildor · Answer

< kartikpatodi> do you have own fork refactored to androidx that I could try and reproduce your problem

kartikpatodi · Answer

wait

kartikpatodi · Answer

< gildor> Not implemented it completely only upto this commit

gildor · Answer

< kartikpatodi> No issue with androidx and constraint layouts Just fix package name in layout xml

kartikpatodi · Answer

Can you pr the changes if you have a working version

gildor · Answer

This is PR with fix

gildor · Answer

kartikpatodi · Answer

Thanks for your time

gildor · Answer

See DataBinding generate code from your layout file so just uses packages from layout

gildor · Answer

also androidx constraintlayout 1 1 1 changed package name from `androidx constraintlayout widget` to `androidx constraintlayout`

kartikpatodi · Answer

Oh I see thanks
