I have an Android Studio project that works fine when I'm using Kotlin version 1.6.21 and compose version 1.2.0-rc01. The problem arises when I want to update both dependencies to the latest versions, which are 1.7.10 for Kotlin and 1.3.0-alpha01 for compose. The error that I get is:

Could not resolve all files for configuration ':app:kotlin-extension'. Could not find androidx.compose.compiler:compiler:1.3.0-alpha01. Searched in the following locations:

• https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/androidx/compose/compiler/compiler/1.3.0-alpha01/compiler-1.3.0-alpha01.pom
• https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/androidx/compose/compiler/compiler/1.3.0-alpha01/compiler-1.3.0-alpha01.pom

Required by: project :app

Any help?

Edit:

Now I'm using these versions:

kotlinCompilerExtensionVersion '1.7.10'

implementation "androidx.compose.ui:ui:1.3.0-alpha01"
implementation "androidx.compose.material:material:1.3.0-alpha01"
implementation "androidx.compose.compiler:compiler:1.2.0"

CodePudding user response：

An alternate Compose compiler version can be defined with composeOptions:

android {
    composeOptions {
        kotlinCompilerExtensionVersion "1.2.0"
    }
}

There's no need to add it as an implementation, which it definitely isn't.
runtimeOnly might eventually work, but it won't make it into the package.

CodePudding user response：

Currently the latest version of compose.compiler is 1.2.0.

To use 1.3.0-alpha01 of available modules you could use:

buildscript {
    ext {
        compose_version = '1.2.0-rc02'
        compose_alpha = '1.3.0-alpha01'
    }
    //...
}

And then:

composeOptions {
    kotlinCompilerExtensionVersion compose_version
}

dependencies {
    implementation "androidx.compose.ui:ui:$compose_alpha"
    implementation "androidx.compose.material:material:$compose_alpha"
}
