Have anyone successfully combined Room and Compose. I am getting this compiler error when I turn on "`buildFeatures { compose true }`" and have kapt annotationProcessor on (

kapt 'androidx.room:room-compiler:2.2.2'

):

Here's the issuetracker node for this one: https://issuetracker.google.com/145557605 RG

Looks like there might currently be multiple issues with kapt and the IR backend that Compose uses: https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/CJLTWPH7S/p1572551472206300?thread_ts=1572551472.206300&cid=CJLTWPH7S

I got around this by creating a library project just for Compose code.

@pardom would you share how (github)?

Unfortunately, it’s not hosted at the moment. I can upload the relative build scripts, though.

@pardom Thank you...
