im getting this warning, but i'm not sure if there's a way to put an explicit label on a receiver?

[Klitos Kyriacou]

How about:

fun <T> Sequence<T>.repeat(count: Int) = this.let { seq ->
   sequence { repeat(count) { yieldAll(seq) } }
}

Alternatively:

fun <T> Sequence<T>.repeat(count: Int) = generateSequence { this }.take(count).flatten()

[bj0]

those are nice workarounds, but does that mean there's no way to explicitly label the reciever/outer function?

[bj0]

(as the tooltip says)

[Klitos Kyriacou]

Sorry, I don't know if this is possible. How did you get that tooltip? It doesn't show in my editor. Are you using K1 or K2 mode? I assume the issue it's highlighting is related to this: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KTLC-82/Qualified-this-change-behavior-in-case-of-potential-label-conflicts

Also, I think that tooltip is wrong: there is no ambiguity here because this@repeat can only refer to the Sequence<T>.repeat function. It can't possibly refer to the regular Kotlin repeat function because its second parameter (i.e. the lambda) doesn't take a receiver - it has only an it, not a this.

[bj0]

strange, i believe i'm using K1

[bj0]

i just have this function `

fun <T> Sequence<T>.repeat(count: Int) = sequence { repeat(count) { yieldAll(this@repeat) } }

and the ide (idea ultimate) is highlighting it as in the screenshot

[ephemient]

you can give explicit labels to lambdas, https://kotlinlang.org/docs/returns.html#return-to-labels

sequence { repeat(count) repeat@{ yieldAll(this@repeat) } }

in this case I don't think that's the behavior you want though

[bj0]

just saw your response, that would indeed refer to the wrong thing in my case (i'm targeting the outermost receiver). i believe Klitos is correct and the warning is just given incorrectly.
