Had to update dependancies to get around obtuse room complier issues

Android Programming (4th Edition) 11. Databases and the Room Library
1

Ended up using:

    implementation 'androidx.room:room-runtime:2.3.0-alpha02'
    kapt 'androidx.room:room-compiler:2.3.0-alpha02'
2

Me too. Problem is it compiles but can’t read the database.

Thank you!!! This worked on 30 March 2021 for me as well. Not sure why it wouldn’t go with 2.1.0-alpha04…
