Can I use <https www jetbrains com help idea using language injections html inject language|Language injection> in `commonMain` code I get a symbol not found on `org intellij lang annotations Language`

plugin to develop Intellij plugins, it’s too tightly coupled with the Java toolchain. It’s been a whiile since I’ve tried so it might be a bit improved by now, but last time I tried the only way I could get things to work like I expected was to use

kotlin("jvm")

Ah, looks like Adam is on top of this: https://github.com/JetBrains/java-annotations/issues/34#issuecomment-1423850122

It's mainly a matter of using the existing IDE support, not developing new one

But for the existing IDE support to work, I need

@Lnaguage

in my

commonCode

Looks like I can redefine the annotation in my code and it can be picked up by IDEA but it's not ideal

It is on the page you shared, at the bottom. I think it should be the first result as using a comment is easier than adding any kind of library

I'm much older than 30, my brain cannot process all that information 😄

Also, I was kindof hoping to build on top of the annotation, i.e. use it as a marker for KSP processing so would still be nice to have the annotation

Hahaha, same for me, I just looked into that section because I knew this feature existed and it was weird for me it wasn't there. About Ksp, does not it support adding comments? I vaguely remember Kotlinpoet supporting them, but I could be inventing all of this.

It's more for reading them, I don't think KSP exposes the full Kotlin PSI with comments
