and the return type is inferred

are there any gotchya's for using it?

the main gotcha is, the return type can change without you noticing

you can however specify the type explicitly

right

i'm going to buy the kotlin in action ebook. hopefully it's good and covers enough material

good idea

book is pretty good, just keep in mind that it's not finished. just wanted to make expectations right simple smile purchased it myself, waiting for final version simple smile

yeah, but the parts that aren't started yet are the ones i'm interested the least right now, probably

yeah, that's true

Hi, need to ask a question about Spek on Android, I got this error message "junit test kotlin Error:Conflict with dependency 'org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib'. Resolved versions for app (1.0.1) and test app (1.0.0) differ”. I specify the kotlin version to be 1.0.0 but for some reason my app module still picks up 1.0.1. Just to add more info, I did upgrade my local kotlin plugin to 1.0.1. Any help will be appreciated!

./gradlew dependencies

will show you what is transitively depending on 1.0.1

Thanks! let me check that

@jw: Thank you so much! Turns out it’s rxkotlin:0.24.100 in my API module

oh, I’m wrong, it’s kotterknfie : )

gosh that's a fun name

is there any reason you don't want to update to 1.0.1 for everything else?

@jw I wanna to, just wanna try out Spek a bit, https://github.com/JetBrains/spek/issues/72. I think I just gonna do JUnit style

wow that code formatting is terrible

it makes the 'improved code' look worse

@sreich: I submitted a bug about the formatting a while ago. :/

Not sure if the project is actively maintained.

@zoltu: @hhariri says they are keeping it up-to-date and that there is a big release coming…

Hopefully the release fixes the website. :)

have you guys tried https://github.com/winterbe/expekt? gets best of junit and kotlin

@adeln: wow thanks for the suggestion, but personally I don’t really like all that dot stuff, and that’s coming from someone who ODed on Bloch’s static builder pattern, rev 2…. Spek is actually great once you get it installed… they ned to go read the wikipedia page on continuous delivery, projects without releases are not cool in 2016...

@zoltu: lol.. yeah the site is puzzlingly bad...

It actually looks good normally @codeslubber, but somehow the styles all broke and haven't been fixed in a while.
