Hello, World! Are there known bugs where the Kotlin compiler never ends? I'm in this situation and don't know what to do.

[Chills]

not sure

[bod]

well... actually it was just VERY VERY slow 😄 I thought it was an infinite loop or something.

Oh, shit, this makes me remember I have to write a bugreport for this

[Kroppeb]

My case was a bunch of ifs and while loops in a suspending inlined lambda which doubles the generated code for each if.

Sometimes build seems to get stuck when it runs out of memory. Although for me it’s usually one of Android Gradle Plugin’s tasks, not Kotlin compilation itself

[bod]

this is on an open source project so if anyone's interested I can provide repro steps

[bod]

basically it takes 5 minutes to compile one single file

Send the link

here: https://github.com/BoD/libticker - ./gradlew build to see it being slow

[Kroppeb]

Do you know which file is slow?

[bod]

yes, this one: https://github.com/BoD/libticker/blob/master/httpconf/src/main/kotlin/org/jraf/libticker/httpconf/IndexHtml.kt

Could be a compiler performance problem. Anyway, this looks like a bug, can you please file an issue in the bug tracker http://kotl.in/issue? We'll investigate. Thanks!
