Is databinding supported for kotlin project?

[atiwari-pretlist]

I am trying to build android kotlin project with buck but facing issues related to data-binding.
Could you please confirm if data-binding is supported with buck? Thanks.

Maybe @brettwooldridge or @cwoodwar6 know.

As was mentioned here: uber/okbuck#651 data-binding is not supported in OkBuck nor is it supported in Buck as far as I am aware. @thalescm might be able to answer to what would be required to support this (assuming I am correct that it isn't supported today).

I do believe you can use Kotlin Android Extensions as an alternative, which is talked about here. Kotlin Android Extensions is supported by both OkBuck and Buck.

Depending on how complex it is to set up data binding, it may be simple to enable it using extra_kotlinc_arguments.

Projects I work on don't use data-binding, so I don't know what gradle does to make it compile, neither tried it at home :/ But it would be a great addition to buck!
