Hey guys! Any Idea on how to disambiguate an extension function that is named the same as a regular function? They're both in the same package and have the same signature (except for the receiver). The "usual" hack of storing its reference in a variable typed with the signature of the target function does not work, as composable function references are not currently supported. It's being a real pain (edited)

They look identical

[Kirill Grouchnikov]

Also keep everything to one thread and not multiple posts

[Raymond]

Updated. The second one is an extension function. The first one is a regular function. I'm trying to use the first one

[Raymond]

Do you know a way to attach a snippet together with a message?

[Kirill Grouchnikov]

The implementation of these functions is the same, so it shouldn’t matter which one you’re “getting” in this particular instance

[Kirill Grouchnikov]

In terms of the server etiquette, you post the short description in the main post, and then a comment with the full snippet - that way the main stream is kept clean and not commandeered by huge code chunks

Would it be an android studio bug?

[Raymond]

It tries to use the ColumnScope.AnimatedVisibility() extension instead of the regular one

[Kirill Grouchnikov]

If it compiles and runs, then it’s a studio bug

[Raymond]

Nope, it does not compiles.
this is the exception:
e: file///.../CoinDetails.kt705:17 'fun ColumnScope.AnimatedVisibility(visible: Boolean, modifier: Modifier = ..., enter: EnterTransition = ..., exit: ExitTransition = ..., label: String = ..., content: AnimatedVisibilityScope.() -> Unit): Unit' can't be called in this context by implicit receiver. Use the explicit one if necessary

[Raymond]

As the function I'm trying to use does not have a receiver, I don't know what to do

[Kirill Grouchnikov]

At this point, it’s time to make the smallest self-contained sample you can that shows this issue. Ideally just one composable function that can be copy-pasted as is into a new project in studio. That way people can take a look in their environment.

[Kirill Grouchnikov]

Or work from https://cs.android.com/androidx/platform/tools/dokka-devsite-plugin/+/master:testDat[…]/samples/animation/samples/AnimatedVisibilitySamples.kt;l=195 towards your code until it stops compiling

[Raymond]

Here is the minimum faulty code

Untitled

[Raymond]

It happens when the composable is indirectly inside a column

[Raymond]

If you remove the outer column, it works fine

[shikasd]

It's a Kotlin bug, it tries to resolve the extension one, probably worth reporting
As a workaround, you can just create your own AnimatedVisibility wrapper that calls the one you need with a different name and call it here.

[Raymond]

I'll report it. Thanks!
