Kotlin Android: unresolved reference databinding — how to fix the error?
Hi! I'm a beginner Android developer in Kotlin. I'm trying to enable Data Binding in my project, but I get the error: "unresolved reference databinding".
Here's what I'm doing:
1. In build.gradle (app) I added:
```kotlin
android {
...
buildFeatures {
dataBinding = true
}
}
```
2. Wrapped my layout in the tag:
```xml
```
3. Trying to use it in Activity:
```kotlin
import androidx.databinding.DataBindingUtil
import com.example.app.databinding.ActivityMainBinding
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
val binding: ActivityMainBinding = DataBindingUtil.setContentView(this, R.layout.activity_main)
}
}
```
