compiler:1.3.0-beta01 is out today 🦜

• Added support for Kotlin 1.7.10

[Rick Regan]

But how do you get 1.7.10 in Android Studio? (I have Electric Eel Canary 8 and I have 1.7.0 which AS calls “the latest”)

[itnoles]

As for Electric Eel, you have to wait for next canary

[Rick Regan]

Thanks. So if not through the latest Canary, how do people use it?

[Colton Idle]

theres the kotlin plugin for the IDE and the kotlin version for your project. even if the plugin isn't available, you can update your project to use a new version of kotlin.

[Rick Regan]

Thanks for making that distinction for me. I don’t know if this is what you meant, but this did the trick:

plugins {
 id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.android' version '1.7.10' apply false
}

[Colton Idle]

Yep. That's what you want!

[Colton Idle]

You also want the ide plugin to update but you'll get a little bubble in the bottom right hand corner when that's ready too
