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?

[dmitriy.novozhilov]

I don't know, unfortunately.
@dimonchik0036 could you help please?

I guess you might be interested in KaScope from the Analysis API (https://kotlin.github.io/analysis-api/scopes.html). KaPackageSymbol#packageScope is particular

Note that 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.
A quick search led me to #detekt-8021
