# compose

Hey all, I've been really struggling to get Compose to work with an existing Android project. I keep getting an error during compilation, and my googling of it hasn't been very helpful.

I'm hoping someone here might have an idea of what's going on. Error message and more details in the thread...

[Ryan Simon]

error

[Ryan Simon]

build.gradle.app.groovy

[Ryan Simon]

build.gradle.root.groovy

[Ryan Simon]

it seems like a weird build issue

[Ryan Simon]

i'm using Android Studio Arctic Fox Beta 4

the error message complains about a class that does have proper annotations...

@Serializable
data class BaseResponse<T>(val code: Int, val response: T? = null)

what versions of kotlin, kotlinx-serialization, agp, compose are you using?

[Ryan Simon]

kotlin = 1.4.32
serialization = 1.0.0
compose = 1.0.0-beta07
agp = 7.1.0-alpha02

Did you change kotlin version recently and have a stale daemon maybe? Just guessing, I have no idea

[Ryan Simon]

i thought that, and weirdly, it will sometimes compile and sometimes not

[Ryan Simon]

i wonder if it's a bug somewhere during compilation. maybe race conditions or something?

[Ryan Simon]

cus running this on my CI/CD produces the same result, but every single time it fails

What if you try disabling parallelism when you run it locally (there’s a flag, I forget what it is)

[Ryan Simon]

i spent some time testing this out, and it turns out that my particular combination of dependencies are causing this issue. specifically it's an issue with kotlin serialization and compose not liking each other

[Ryan Simon]

other things like using Result<T> causes issues with Kotlin 1.5, so I have to wait until Kotlin 1.5.30 to use Compose in my project

thanks for your help determining this @Zach Klippenstein (he/him) [MOD]
