Does this usage require kotlin-reflect.jar? val getter: KMutableProperty1<> = MyClass::myProperty val my value = getter.get(myInstance)

No, it shouldn't

Interesting. I've read through docs and wasn't able to find a definitive answer. KProperty and KMutableProperty and in the kotlin.reflect package. Are all the classes in kotlin.reflect not in the kotlin-reflect.jar?

Unfortunately, there’s no good docs on that. Basically all of `get`/`set`/`invoke` in KProperty/KFunction do not require reflection, as well as different kinds of names (

KProperty/KFunction.name

,

KClass.simpleName/qualifiedName

),

KClass.isInstance

, and `equals`/`hashCode`
