Is kotlin generating setters for vars that are private as well, or how can i prevent the compiler from generating setters for var´s

use

@JvmField

to prevent from generating both setters and getter - property will then be plain old java field

great, thanks for the answer

For simple

private var

, there are no setters generated

private var is generating setters

For simple

private var age = 5

for example. It wouldn’t However, if your var is via delegation, then it will generate get/set Also, if you try to access the var from an inner class, then synthetic get/set will be generated

i just checked the dex, an private var like private var id: String = "" generates an getter and sette

I have this:

class Me {
    private var id: String = ""
}

And Decompiled:

public final class Me {
   private String id = "";
}

i know where the problem is for me

Inner class could be any inner class (with or without

inner

,

object

) accessing the variable

yes

Cool. There you go

when using jvm field im not getting the setters generated

Yea. But you can't use

@JvmField

on a private property. So no need to generate synthetic assessors

maybe i should just use an var and doesnt care about the generated getter

Can I ask, why are you bothered by getters/setters? Method count?

yes thats the reason

I'm not sure but I remember something about proguard replacing simple setters/getters with direct field access.
