In Android Studio Koala | 2024.1.1 when enabling the explicit public api I am getting error when applying the public modifier in AS. Is this known issue?

[Atul Gupta]

In the build.gradle.kts I have used below code to set the explicit public API flag

tasks.withType<org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.tasks.KotlinCompile>().configureEach {
    jvmTargetValidationMode.set(org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.dsl.jvm.JvmTargetValidationMode.ERROR)
    compilerOptions {
        freeCompilerArgs.add("-Xexplicit-api=strict")
    }
}

This is the warning that I am getting

[ephemient]

don't use freeCompilerArgs, use

kotlin {
    explicitApi()
}

[Atul Gupta]

Thanks for pointing this out. Do you know why this worked and freeCompilerArgs didn't?
Is there any tracking bug for this?
