Kotlin 1.6, Jetpack Compose 1.1.0 compilation error

Question

I have updated my project to Kotlin 1.6.10, Compose 1.1.0-rc01 and compose compiler to 1.1.0-rc02, because I need some new features in Compose.

During compilation I have now this error, any solution ? It was working with Kotlin 1.5.31, Compose/Compose compiler 1.0.5

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Symbol for kotlin.collections/mutableMapOf|-4813910536206556932[0] is unbound

Answer 1

I encountered the exact same issue on two different projects when updating the Compose & Kotlin versions.

Removing the kotlin-android-extensions plugin resolved the issue on both projects for me. This means you can no longer use Kotlin synthetics for view binding.

Answer 2

I've seen a few other reports (and myself) seeing the same thing. One temporary workaround is to use new compose with an older compose compiler that doesn't force you to upgrade kotlin since you only need the new compose functionality. Add something like this in your build.gradle with a similar compose version that supports your kotlin version (https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/compose-kotlin)

composeOptions {
   
    kotlinCompilerExtensionVersion = '1.1.0-beta03'
}
