Jetpack Compose preview stopped working in Arctic Fox with Patch 1


With the first patch for AS Arctic Fox Jetpack Compose previews stopped working.

I'm getting this error for all previews - even older ones, which worked fine a while back:

android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException: Could not resolve resource value: [some hex value]

Are here any quick fixes for this? Clearing caches and the usual stuff did not work.


EDIT:
Looks like the problem is not always present. Some preview started working, while other are still failing.

EDIT 2:
This is happening in dynamic feature modules, when there's a need for resources from the main module or painterResource() is being used (even is resource from the same module is to be displayed).


Solution

  • This got fixed in AS Bumblebee, patch 2.

    Edit (copied from comments): It then got broken again in Electric Eel | 2022.1.1 and fixed again in Flamingo | 2022.2.1 Beta 4.

    Edit 2 (copied from comments - Feb 2024): It apparently got broken again in Giraffe and Hedgehog.
