android - Data binding class not generated in latest studio 3.6

Question

Today I have updated my android studio 3.5.3 to 3.6. Now, I am not able to generate any data binding class. Android studio it self generating data-binding-iml file.

Does any one faced such issue?

Gradle wrapper.properties:

distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-5.4.1-all.zip

Project level gradle file:

dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.5.3'
}

App level gradle file:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android-extensions'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt'
apply plugin: 'androidx.navigation.safeargs'
android {
 dataBinding {
        enabled = true
    }
    // Using Lambda Expressions
    compileOptions {
        sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
        targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    }

    kotlinOptions {
        jvmTarget = "1.8"
    }
}

gradle.properties:

kotlin.code.style=official
android.databinding.enableV2=true
kotlin.incremental=true
kapt.incremental.apt=true

Below is my Activity and XML files: Activity:

class ActivityMain : AppCompatActivity() {
    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        var binding = DataBindingUtil.setContentView<ActivityMainBinding>(this, R.layout.activity_main)
    }
}

XML:

Official solution:

Google has resolved this issue. After updating with new patch of android studio 3.6.2, I am able to create databinding class with multiple source set

Answer 1

I am using android studio 3.6.1 the problem solved after adding viewBinding.enabled = true to android{ in build.gradle :

android {

...
    dataBinding {
        enabled = true
    }
    viewBinding.enabled = true

Update: Make sure you add apply plugin: 'kotlin-android-extensions' in top of App Module gradle file :

  plugins {
    id 'com.android.application'
    id 'kotlin-android'
    id 'kotlin-kapt'
    id 'kotlin-android-extensions' //<--
  }
