Yes not sure what the right wording should be. Any proposal welcome.

Kotlin [extensions](link to kotlin extension docs) provide the ability to extend existing classes with new functionality.  The Spring Framework Kotlin APIs makes use of these extensions to add new Kotlin specific conveniences to existing Spring API's

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yeah sounds better

I didn't know there was a Kotlin scripting template..that's pretty cool 🙂 Not sure the docs need to mention the kotlin-spring plugin and Kotlin 1.0.6...doubt anyone is on anything earlier than Kotlin 1.1 now. Using arrayOf in an annotation param should no longer be needed in Kotlin 1.2 but it's probably not worth mentioning that.

Thanks for all your feedbacks and support, now spread the word and use it in real projects 🙂

Congrats! Do you know when spring boot 2 will follow ?

Thanks, end of the year

Thank you Sebastien for all the hard work driving Kotlin to Spring

+++

Awesome work man!

Good work

Thanks, and also big thanks to the Kotlin team at JetBrains, support and fixes for what we raised have been awesome. I think what we have built in win / win for both communities

Need help... Spring Boot 1.5.7 Kotlin version 1.1.50 Java works well but I translate it into Kotlin, Spring can not register beans well, my IDEA Spring plugin can find Bean

Unsatisfied dependency expressed through constructor parameter 1; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.UnsatisfiedDependencyException: Error creating bean with name 'securityConfiguration': Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javaslang/collection/LinkedHashMap

javaslang

? Bad import maybe ?

I download JHipster and translate all Java into Kotlin.

Hum, I guess you can try to share a the project on GitHub to get some help

no where to configure my import no warnings or errors

javaslang/collection/LinkedHashMap

java*s*lang

OK, some times Kotlin has strange problems in Springs creating bean, when app is starting.Thanks and I will dig into this detail, but I have no places to configure the import.

kotlin-complier-embedable, what should I do?...

Here is my project Url

<https://github.com/tb280320889/resume-demo>

, I do love Kotlin because it's a wonderful language, I am trying Spring Cloud and Spring boot with kotlin these days, this project is initiated by JHipster, Run the BlogApp at module : blog/src/kotlin/BlogApp can see this problem, by the way Jhipster is very convinent Spring boot + anqular 4 ready-to-use demo creator and has many other great functions.If there are no issuses on Spring's creating beans with Kotlin and a more powerful Kotlin Plugin in IDEA like Java, that would be great!

any good resources on how to write a full stack web app with sprint boot 2 and kotlin?

@nfrankel I know, looks like thee aren't any or many resources around 😞

exactly it’s just brand new but you could write one 🤔

how can write one when I don't know it.

I just tried the mixit app and got this error:
