By doing that you're making those people loose time tracking why there is no output. Just add stylecheck/linting and prevent them from compiling/building code with print/println in it. This is what we have set up in our project, checkstyle detects and complains about print/println and IntelliJ highlights them also.

[janvladimirmostert]

where do you setup checkstyle, didn't know Kotlin had that yet

[janvladimirmostert]

I agree, that would be the better solution

[Czar]

let me dig this up...

[gildor]

actually maybe make sense to trry new Android Lint, it works now with pure java projects (not Android) and you can write such check

[janvladimirmostert]

this is not Android though, it's for a server application

[gildor]

Yes, I understand, but Android Lint 3.2 possible to use just for Java application, it supports Java and Kotlin at the same time using UAST and have API for extensions

[gildor]

also good reports

[gildor]

so for Kotlin apps sounds like a good solution

[janvladimirmostert]

this looks nice

[janvladimirmostert]

will need to switch to gradle as well, currently on maven

[Czar]

Uh, oh, seems we don't have this set up for kotlin, but I've found that at least two projects exist for Kotlin: detekt and ktlint. I guess I will be setting this up over the weekend for our project 🙂

[janvladimirmostert]

ktlint has maven support, yay
busy adding it now, let's see if I can throw warnings for prints, already squashing print's output

[gildor]

Not sure that ktlint and detekt has this. Also if you write some check for these libraries it will work only for Kotlin. Lint provides. API that allows to write universal checks

[janvladimirmostert]

we only have Kotlin, about 400k lines and 2 Java classes that we didn't feel like porting

[janvladimirmostert]

this ktlin is amazing, it fixes stuff for you

# make sure tabs are used for indents and not spaces
[*.{kt,dart}]
indent_style=tab
tab_size=4

all of a sudden, all files that has mixed tabs and spaces are indented with tabs!
