Unresolved reference: DaoSession using greendao and kotlin

I am trying to convert a android project written in java to kotlin. My greendao class have been generated by anytime i build i get a Unresolved reference: DaoSession error message. I have
kapt { generateStubs = true } in my build gradle code.

Solution

  • This is caused by that Greendao generate DaoSession and other Dao files at a default path:"app/build/generated/source/greendao/", which cannot be found by kotlin.

    So you just need to change the Dao path by adding this code to your module Gradle file:

    greendao {
    targetGenDir 'src/main/java' 
}

    Then, you can find the Dao files like DaoSesson.java are generated in your project path 'src/main/java'. Now Kotlin can find the DaoSession.

    Hope can help.
