Room cannot find implementation

for Kotlin change the 'annotationProcessor' keyword to 'kapt' in gradle file.

kapt "android.arch.persistence.room:compiler:1.1.1"

and also add on top of the dependency file

apply plugin: 'kotlin-kapt'

kapt is for Kotlin.

First, add:

annotationProcessor "android.arch.persistence.room:compiler:1.0.0"

to your dependencies closure.

Then, upgrade android.arch.persistence.room:rxjava2 and android.arch.persistence.room:testing to 1.0.0 instead of 1.0.0-rc1.
