I tried updating some dependencies and corrected the versions for hilt compiler and kotlin but it didn't work.What am I missing and here. I am trying to create an application which utilizes room here.

Solution

  • You mixed a lot of different, incompatible artifacts. To clean it up do the following:

    1. libs.versions.toml:

      • Remove the following versions: 
        googleHiltAndroid
hiltAndroidCompiler
hiltAndroidVersion
hiltCompiler
hiltLifecycleViewmodel
hiltWork
      • Rename the version hiltCompilerVersion to hiltNavigationCompose
      • Remove the following libraries: 
        androidx-hilt-compiler
androidx-hilt-compiler-v100
androidx-hilt-compiler-v100alpha01
androidx-hilt-lifecycle-viewmodel
androidx-hilt-work
SimilarGradleDependencyhilt-android-compiler-v252
SimilarGradleDependencyhilt-android-v244
SimilarGradleDependencyhilt-android-v252
hilt-compiler
      • Make sure androidx-hilt-navigation-compose uses the version hiltNavigationCompose

    2. Top-level build.gradle.kts:

      Replace

      id("com.google.dagger.hilt.android") version "2.51.1" apply false

      with

      alias(libs.plugins.hilt) apply false

    3. Module-level build.gradle.kts:

      Remove the following lines:

      implementation(libs.androidx.hilt.lifecycle.viewmodel)
kapt(libs.androidx.hilt.compiler.v100)

    That's it. After a gradle sync everything should work again.
