Is DCE somehow built-in into the compiler in 1.4?

[Big Chungus]

yes

[Big Chungus]

wait, no

[Big Chungus]

dce task only appears when you have produceLibrary() in your js target config

[Big Chungus]

and it's a hidden task, only visible through gradle model

For projects targeting the browser, DCE is enabled by default since 1.3.70 @Robert Jaros – also see the “Kotlin/JS” section in the release blog post: https://blog.jetbrains.com/kotlin/2020/03/kotlin-1-3-70-released/ 🙂

I'm was asking about gradle task, because I have some configuration that depends on this task, and it's not visible with 1.4-M1.
