I have solved this issue using deselection of the Offline work option in Settings

Answer 2

1. Please check current version of your Kotlin in below path,

   C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\gradle\m2repository\org\jetbrains\kotlin\kotlin-stdlib\1.0.5

change to that version (1.0.5) in project level gradle file.

You can see in your above path does not mentioned any Java - jre version, so remove in your app level gradle file as below,

compile "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib:$kotlin_version"

Answer 3

In case a (transitive) dependency still uses the jre variant of the Kotlin library, you can force the use of the jdk variant with the help of a resolution strategy:

configurations.all {
    resolutionStrategy {
        eachDependency { DependencyResolveDetails details ->
            details.requested.with {
                if (group == "org.jetbrains.kotlin" && name.startsWith("kotlin-stdlib-jre")) {
                    details.useTarget(group: group, name: name.replace("jre", "jdk"), version: version)
                    details.because("Force use of 'kotlin-stdlib-jdk' in favor of deprecated 'kotlin-stdlib-jre'.")
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Answer 4

Starting with Kotlin 1.1.2, the dependencies with group org.jetbrains.kotlin are by default resolved with the version taken from the applied plugin. You can provide the version manually using the full dependency notation like:

compile "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib:$kotlin_version"

If you're targeting JDK 7 or JDK 8, you can use extended versions of the Kotlin standard library which contain additional extension functions for APIs added in new JDK versions. Instead of kotlin-stdlib, use one of the following dependencies:

compile "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk7"
compile "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk8"

Answer 5

replace

implementation "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jre7:$kotlin_version"

with

implementation "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk7:$kotlin_version"

Since the version with jre is absolute , just replace and sync the project

Answer 6

build.gradle (Project)

buildScript {
    ...
    dependencies {
        ...
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.0.0-rc01'
    }
}

Some libraries require the updated gradle. Such as:

androidTestImplementation "org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-coroutines-test:$coroutines"
