What is the use of different values in `enum class NoLookupLocation : LookupLocation` in kotlin complier? I am trying to find if a particular method exist or not in the current compilation scope and need to pass the value of `LookupLocation` . Method I am using is below
``` moduleDescriptor.getPackage(FqName("kotlin.sequences")).memberScope.getContributedFunctions(
    functionName,
    NoLookupLocation.FROM_BUILTINS
)```

Different values here are mostly documentational.
They all indicate that the request came not from analysis of sources but from some synthetic place or for internal need.

Note that the whole descriptor API will be deprecated with K1, which will happen any time after 2.3 release.

Thanks for the update. Do you know what should be the recommend way in Analysis api to query if callableId can be resolved(method is present) from `kotlin.sequences` package?

I don't know, unfortunately.
<@UGXQHQSDN> could you help please?

Note that <https://kotlin.github.io/analysis-api/index_md.html|the Analysis API> is not for compiler plugin development

I was working on one open issue in Detekt github repo. 
So Analysis Api is correct to use there right?

It is better to ask the repo maintainers/contribution guides – they might or might not support the Analysis API.
