just updated to 0.7.2 and started migrating to use kotlin-inject-anvil and now i'm getting a FileAlreadyExistsException. best way to debug this?

[Josh Feinberg]

my component is defined as

@AppScope
@Component
@MergeComponent
internal abstract class AppComponent(
    @Component val clientComponent: ClientComponent,
)

with the @MergeComponent annotation, i get the FileAlreadyExistsException. if i remove it i get this other error

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Storage for [...\build\kspCaches\jvm\jvmMain\symbolLookups\id-to-file.tab] is already registered

I think the latter issue is from KSP, and killing the daemon (./gradlew --stop) should fix it.

[Josh Feinberg]

ah yeah, that fixed that error

i am back to the FileAlreadyExistsException exception though so this might be a anvil issue

I was able to get around these issues with a subcomponent. I couldn’t ever get it working with a regular component though. Adding a @Component to the constructor of another component would never work and would always throw the same errors as above
