Android Kotlin : Error Unresolved reference: DaggerAppComponent

Question

I have installed Kotlin plugin today into an existing project with Dagger 2. Before Kotlin was installed I had no issues with Dagger. However, now the compiler complains :

I was getting the same error message, but my case was different than yours. The unresolved reference appeared only when generating signed APK. This is how I solved it:

app/build.gradle

kapt {
    generateStubs = true
}

dependencies {
    //...
    implementation 'com.google.dagger:dagger:2.9'
    kapt 'com.google.dagger:dagger-compiler:2.9'
}

I can now deploy my signed APK without errors
