Starting Kotlin 1.5.0, using the following fun interface:

internal fun interface Action<T: Any> {
    val id: String get() = hashCode().toString()
    fun execute(): Result<T>
}

fails on Android with: com.android.tools.r8.errors.b: Method name '<get-id>' in class '...$reload$1$1$2' cannot be represented in dex format. Does anyone know if this is a Kotlin or R8 issue?

Kotlin is using a non-Java-compatible name, which is normally fine since JVM allows it, but Dalvik doesn't. probably a Kotlin issue. not a d8 issue: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/65010138

[ephemient]

could be a feature request for l8, maybe, and if you were running r8 maybe you'd get away with it

It works with 1.4.31 though. Not sure what l8 is?

d8 dexer, l8 desugar, r8 minimizer. same codebase, different parts of the app building pipeline
