is Compose ready to work with Kotlin 1.4.20 ?
I am asking it because I have a project working fine with Kotlin 1.4.10 , but when I try to update it to Kotlin 1.4.20 the compilation fails:

The root cause java.lang.NoSuchMethodError was thrown at: 
e: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Backend Internal error: Exception during file facade code generation
File being compiled: file:///Users/magnumrocha/personal/my_app/app/src/main/java/com/myapp/Commons.kt
androidx.compose.compiler.plugins.kotlin.lower.ClassStabilityFieldSerializationPlugin.afterClass(ClassStabilityFieldSerializationPlugin.kt:57)

the `Commons.kt`:

sealed class MenuAction(@StringRes val label: Int, val icon: VectorAsset) {
    object History : MenuAction(R.string.history_menu, Icons.Outlined.List)
    object About : MenuAction(R.string.about_menu, <http://Icons.Outlined.Info|Icons.Outlined.Info>)
}

AFAIK compose alpha08 will be ready, but alpha07 is not

[magnumrocha]

oh, ok that's it so....

[allan.conda]

not alpha release, but they pushed it in snapshot for those who really need it

[magnumrocha]

this is happening to me yet

[magnumrocha]

but, I can use kotlin 1.4.10 with compose 1.0.0-alpha08

@David Edwards That error is an indication that you are not actually using Compose 1.0.0-alpha08, as that error can only occurs if you are using Kotlin 1.4.20 with an older version of Compose.

@magnumrocha Kotlin 1.4.10 does NOT work with Compose 1.0.0-alpha08 so if you are using Kotlin 1.4.10 then you are NOT using Compose 1.0.0-alpha08 and vice versa.

Be sure to check both your kotlinCompilerVersion and your kotlinCompilerExtensionVersion and to kill all gradle daemons and kill your gradle cache before performing your build.

[magnumrocha]

@jim I've updated only the compose libraries, not the compose compiler (still on 1.0.0-alpha07 ) and everything works well

[magnumrocha]

composeOptions {
    kotlinCompilerVersion "1.4.10"
    kotlinCompilerExtensionVersion '1.0.0-alpha07'
}

dependencies {

    ...

    // Jetpack Compose libraries
    def compose_version = "1.0.0-alpha08"
    implementation "androidx.compose.ui:ui:$compose_version"
    // Tooling support (Previews, etc.)
    implementation 'androidx.ui:ui-tooling:1.0.0-alpha07'
    // Foundation (Border, Background, Box, Image, Scroll, shapes, animations, etc.)
    implementation "androidx.compose.foundation:foundation:$compose_version"
    // Material Design
    implementation "androidx.compose.material:material:$compose_version"
    // Material design icons
    implementation "androidx.compose.material:material-icons-core:$compose_version"
    implementation "androidx.compose.material:material-icons-extended:$compose_version"
    // Integration with observables
    implementation "androidx.compose.runtime:runtime-livedata:$compose_version"
    // Navigation for Compose
    implementation "androidx.navigation:navigation-compose:1.0.0-alpha03"
}

@jim
• Android Studio cache invalidated
• Gradle processes stopped
• Gradle cache deleted
Problem resolved. Thanks for the feedback.

[magnumrocha]

@David Edwards do you have kotlin 1.4.20 with compose 1.0.0-alpha08 working?

[David Edwards]

Yes. I have never needed to fully delete my cache .gradle/caches before, but that seemed to do the trick.

[magnumrocha]

ok, I'm going to try it now...

[magnumrocha]

now it working 🦜 , but in my case, only the Android Studio cache invalidated has solved the problem 💪 , anyway thank you guys @David Edwards @jim
