1.3.40 enabled the new inference engine for the IDE analysis. Is there a way to enable the new inference engine in JPS so Kotlin code gets compiled with it? Like passing -XXLanguage:+NewInference to the compiler, I couldn’t find a place for compiler arguments in the UI.

Isn't it Additional command line parameters right below?

ah, in front of my 👀
thanks!

[eskatos]

it seems it enables it 👍 but then I get a different failure

[Marc Knaup]

Maybe try with serialization plugin disabled, fix compile errors, then re-enable

[eskatos]

Gradle builds the code just fine with the new inference engine. I can fix the compilation errors by adding more explicit type declarations but I’d like to make the new inference engine work.

[eskatos]

I don’t use a serialization plugin, from the stacktrace I would say it’s some internals of the kotlinjs compiler that do some serialization for the kotlin metadata.

[Marc Knaup]

Looks like that you have to hunt for the cause of the compiler error and report it 😕

[eskatos]

Yeah 🕳️ 🐇

[eskatos]

What troubles me is that it should compile with the new inference engine enabled, and, the error pops up before the warning about enabling the new engine 🤷‍♂️

[eskatos]

Maybe it’s not, I’ve no idea in what order compiler messages are shown

[eskatos]

EndOfDayException, I might get back to this
Thanks @Marc Knaup

Enjoy the evening 🙂
