Dagger Hilt Version: 2.42Kotlin Version: 1.7.0Gradle Version: 7.4.1

what is the cause for this error?

I've used Dagger hilt as a Dependency injection framework in my project with version 2.42. In hilt_aggregated_deps all Components were generated but still I get hiltJavaCompileDebug : failed in Build.

I have also added below dependency to fix metadata but still the error is same.

dependencies {//Not a processor, but forces Dagger to use newer metadata libkapt "org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-metadata-jvm:0.4.2"}reffering from [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73061190/dagger-hilt-error-while-compiling-project\]

The reason being that is from your hilt life

try to remove this:

implementation "androidx.hilt:hilt-lifecycle-viewmodel:1.0.0-alpha03"

> Hmm, the androidx.hilt:hilt-lifecycle-viewmodel artifacts were deprecated in the Dagger 2.34 release in favor of native Hilt API. The missing DefaultActivityViewModelFactory class is no longer in the Hilt codebase.
>
> You should be able to fix this using the instructions in the 2.34
> release notes to upgrade to the new HiltViewModel API.
Find it here

Just by add these line :

def hilt = "2.45"
implementation "com.google.dagger:hilt-android:$hilt"
kapt "com.google.dagger:hilt-android-compiler:$hilt"
