In the analysis api(`analyze` set of apis) is there any equivalent api like `WhenChecker.getMissingCases` ?

Hi!

You are probably looking for the `computeMissingCases` function:

Hi <@ULFPSQS4A> one more thing since this method is marked as `@KaIdeApi` is it safe to use outside the ide?

The annotation says this:
&gt; ```Internal API which is used only from the IntelliJ Kotlin plugin. Such an API should not be used in other places since it has no compatibility guarantees```
Regarding this particular method, I doubt that it would change much in the future, but still

If you are writing the code for the IDEA plugin (and not a standalone Analysis API Mode), I guess that it should be “safe” to use

Outside of IDEA plugin - not so much

Earlier we were using `WhenChecker.getMissingCases` for a detekt rule, now since detekt is not a Idea plugin should we not use it? If not, then what should be the alternate for this?

Detekt Rule name: `OptionalUnit`
Since this rule is being <https://github.com/detekt/detekt/pull/8436|migrated> to use Analysis api, similar api is not being present in the same

Brais created a tracker issue at <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-80459> for exposing this api a public one(without the `@KaIdeApi` annotation
