Description
Not sure where to file this issue but i thought to start here.
Using Android Studio 3.3.1 with androidx, databinding enabled, AutoValue and Glide i faced the Error
```
cannot find symbol DataBindingComponent
```
it was all over the place of all generated databinding classes. Also there were Glide errors but i was already used to know that they are always present, if the project does not compile. However, there were no AutoValue errors present.
Now if i declare an empty interface for the DataBindingComponent to make the data binding compiler happy the root error from AutoValue gets revealed
```
error: Parameter type java.lang.Boolean of setter method should be boolean to match getter
```
fixing that and then removing the dummy interface i am happy to be able to compile the project again. The sad thing is, whenever i introduce an AutoValue error i have to repeat the process.
