kotlinlang

<@U19UGKG8P> I have no access to Android SDK right now, but might it be that the `getText` method is annotated with `@NotNull`, while the parameter to the `setText` Method isn't? In that case, the synthetic property `text` seems to have it's type inferred from the getter method and just assumes that the setter should follow the same rule. If you manually create a nullable setter and a not nullable getter via annotations from java, the `text` property is actually assumed to be a `val`, as the two methods have different types, as far as kotlin is concerned.
