DSL element 'android.dataBinding.enabled' is obsolete and has been replaced with 'android.buildFeatures.dataBinding'

Starting from Android Gradle Plugin 4.0.0-alpha05 there is a new block called buildFeatures to enable build features.

So in order to enable databinding with new AGP plugin you have do like following in module (ex: app) level gradle file

build.gradle ( Groovy DSL )

// shorter version// android.buildFeatures.dataBinding true// longer versionandroid {    buildFeatures {         dataBinding true         // for view binding:         // viewBinding true    }}

build.gradle.kts ( Kotlin DSL )

// shorter version// android.buildFeatures.dataBinding = true// longer versionandroid {  buildFeatures {         dataBinding = true         // for view binding:         // viewBinding = true    }}

Reference: https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/gradle-plugin#buildFeatures

This warning occurs because

    dataBinding {        enabled=true    }    viewBinding {        enabled=true    }

This code style is deprecated and it will remove from the gradle version 5now if you still want to use this then you can use androidx legacy support dependencies

in app lavel build.gradle

implementation 'androidx.legacy:legacy-support-v4:1.0.0'

otherwise you can use new code style to enable data binding and view binding

like this

android {  buildFeatures {         dataBinding = true         // for view binding:         // viewBinding = true    }}

Put it in build.gradle(applevel).It will work with android studio version greater than or equal to 4.0.0.

     android {             buildFeatures{                     dataBinding = true // for data binding                     viewBinding = true // for view binding              }     }
