I ve updated my project to Kotlin 1 8 10 and pulled in detek kotlinlang #detekt

I’ve updated my project to Kotlin 1.8.10 and pulled in detekt v1.23.0-RC1. Does the new version check in the runner need to be so restrictive, or would checking for a match on major and minor parts of the version be sufficient? Are there anticipated problems when detekt is compiled with 1.8.20 but running with 1.8.10, for example?

There is not restrictions between those two

You can use whatever version you want and they should work.

I get this error when running my detekt gradle task

detekt was compiled with Kotlin 1.8.20 but is currently running with 1.8.10.

This is not supported. See https://detekt.dev/docs/gettingstarted/gradle#dependencies for more information.

From here, looks like

The documentation is not released so the link doesn't point to the right site

if you follow my link will find a rational about what's going on.

If you don't find that documentation usefull please open an issue so we can improve it. This is new for this version.

Cool, I can give that work around a shot. Thanks for the link! I guess in general, I would expect versions that differ at the Patch level to be compatible with each other. But having never paid close attention to the compiler APIs, I don’t know if that’s true for

kotlin-compiler-embeddable

Sadly it's not because it is not a public api yet.
