How can I check if my annotation type parameter of type KClass<*> is assignable from a certain KSClassDeclaration?

[Pavel S]

It seems KSType has isAssignableFrom method, but I can get KSType from the annotation argument, but can’t figure out how to get KSType from KSClassDeclaration

[Pavel S]

Solution: instead of using KSType it’s possible to get KSClassDeclaration via Resolver::getClassDeclarationByName and use its KSClassDeclaration::getAllSuperTypes method

Would calling KSClassDeclaration.asType() work? If you don’t need to supply type arguments for the type parameters, asType(emptyList()) should work.
