for configuring my logger in classes i use

MyClass::class.java.simpleName

. I want to setup a logger for my kotlin file (no classes inside), can I get the FQN of the kotlin file somehow? e.g.

com.example.stuff.UtilitiesKt

?

Try

MyClass::class.java.getCanonicalName()

Remember, by calling

::class.java

you get access to all the methods defined in

Class

from Java library

Thanks for the hint. Any idea about getting the FQN of the kotlin file?

Define a toplevel method and use:

tlm.javaMethod!!.declaringClass.name

perfect thanks. From you answer I assume there is no "kotlin native" i.e. JVM independent way to access it, right?

Not that I know of. I think at one point they wanted to introduce File and Package concepts in reflection but havent seen any of that yet.
