Android build error when using data binding with realm object

Hi, i have this problem.

If i have a class that inherits RealmObject

import io.realm.kotlin.types.RealmObject

class User: RealmObject {
    var name: String = ""

And i try to make it as live data

class LoginViewModel : ViewModel() {

    val user = MutableLiveData<User>()

And i use data binding to display its value somewhere in my layout

            <androidx.appcompat.widget.AppCompatTextView
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:text="@{viewModel.user.name}"
                tools:text="hi User"/>

I will get this error when i try to build the app

/path/to/my/android_app/app/build/generated/source/kapt/debug/com/my_app/android/databinding/FragmentLoginBindingImpl.java:215: error: cannot access User
    private boolean onChangeViewModelUser(androidx.lifecycle.MutableLiveData<com.my_app.android.database.models.User> ViewModelUser, int fieldId) {
                                                                                                              ^
  bad class file: /path/to/my/android_app/app/build/tmp/kotlin-classes/debug/com/my_app/android/database/models/User.class
    undeclared type variable: T
    Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath.

Any insight on this would be appreciated, Thanks!

@robbieadi I created a sample based on the official KotlinCoroutineswithArchitectureComponentsLiveDataViewModelLifecycle with Realm, it works as expected. Could you please have a look and see if this matches your use case, or find a way to make it crash so we can have a repro to investigate

Cheers KotlinCoroutineswithArchitectureComponentsLiveDataViewModelLifecycle.zip

Ah, I see. I was using version 1.0.0, but once I updated it to 1.0.1 I can now build the app successfully. As for reproducing the error you can easily reproduce it by downgrading the realm to version 1.0.0 in your KotlinCoroutineswithArchitectureComponentsLiveDataViewModelLifecycle app.

Thanks for your help @nhachicha!
