I am facing this strange issue where my project compiles and runs successfully but in my kotlin scope functions red errors are coming. It also shows errors on some of the kotlin functions like toLong(), toDouble() etc.

Where the let shows unresolved reference

and I have this in my gradle file

   apply plugin: 'com.android.application'
apply plugin: 'kotlin-android'

            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }

    lintOptions {
        checkReleaseBuilds false
        // Or, if you prefer, you can continue to check for errors in release builds,
        // but continue the build even when errors are found:
        abortOnError false
    }

    dataBinding {
        enabled = true
    }

task clean(type: Delete) {
    delete rootProject.buildDir
}

I have tried Invalidate cache/Restart and also tried deleting .idea and .gradle files nothing helped, I have also tried to restart the android studio and also tried to change branches from git nothing helped.
any help appreciated.

  1. Change this line

    implementation 'org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk7:1.3.50'
    

    Into

    implementation 'org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk8:1.3.50'
    

    And then do again, clean build then invalidate cache and restart.

  2. I had similar experience on Android Studio with Kotlin since 2 weeks ago.
    When I import a project on GitHub with old Kotlin plugin version 1.3.31. I quickly changed it to 1.3.72 (the latest kotlin) then, I had had this error too.

    I could fix the error when I changed the plugin version to 1.3.61 (older version) and sync my project. It removed the error and update it to the latest plugin version 1.3.72. And everything worked smoothly now.

    buildscript {
        ext.kotlin_version = '1.3.72'
        repositories {
            google()
            jcenter()
    
        }
        dependencies {
            classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.6.3'
            classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
            // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
            // in the individual module build.gradle files
            classpath "androidx.navigation:navigation-safe-args-gradle-plugin:2.3.0-alpha06"
        }
    }
    

    I was like magic.

    Just changed the Kotlin plugin version to a 2 or 3 older versions backward and sync your project. I should work

    I hoped it helps
