I am trying to set as private the constructor of inline classes (and value classes, I tried both), but I am getting an exception. Is it not supported yet?

[Marko Novakovic]

am running this without a problem

@JvmInline
value class Test private constructor(val test: String) {
    companion object {
        fun create(): Test = Test("test")
    }
}

fun main() {
    println(Test.create())
}
