I'm also facing the same problem: i already responded in the other issue but i'll put it here as well so this might get more attention.

i'm using mobidevelop's fork of robovm, that's it robovm-2.1.0, but since the version bump was made to avoid collisions i'm pretty confident that the bindings are the same as the original robovm-1.8. Quoting what @BlueRiverInteractive said in the other issue:

NSObject$Handle has been introduced in 1.9.0. Make sure that you clear your robovm cache and build everything again. You can also try to use RoboVM 1.9.1-SNAPSHOT instead of stable.

Are we out of luck? Is there something we can do to make it work?

Hey guys, i solved this by using these pods https://github.com/florianf/robovm-robopods and clearing all the caches. Not sure which ones did it, but it works now.

I cleared everything in .m2 and in .robovm and .robovm-sdk and reimported my project. i.e. did a full rebuild.

also this might have helped as well

also do not use the robovm plugin to build, use the command line
