Hi, I'm Ini...
I recently hopped on the kotlin boat ⛵
I'm using 'kotlin apprentice' as a reference - by R. Wenderlich - currently I'm studying coroutines...
My issue: kotlinx dependency isn't building...so I used Retrofit dep (build.gradle) cuz Retro includes coroutines out of the box 🎁
Retro dep builds...autocomplete for kotlinx.coroutines.* works, yet features are red - dispatchers, launch, run blocking etc...

I'll search to see if anyone else has this problem here anyways I'm proud to meet you guys and I hope we can do some work - good work together! #coroutines

How are you adding the dependency on kotlinx.coroutines? Is the build failing when you run Gradle from command line or only from the IDE? What's the error then?

[Nick Allen]

Maybe try deleting that space in front of 1.6.0?

[flygerian.eagle]

Nick, the build was success...yet red everywhere...

[Joffrey]

When you say the build is a success, are you running it from command line or from the IDE? If from the command line, which command? If from the IDE, how? Is it via a run configuration or a task in the Gradle panel?

Did you try refreshing the Gradle configuration after your change in build.gradle.kts? (clicking the "refresh" button in the Gradle tool window)

That's expected, you should run Gradle, not kotlinc to get Gradle scripts live.

The error on the screenshot does look genuine though, what does the source file look like? Are you trying to pass a Job where an Int is expected?
