If there any difference between Java::class.java and Java::class?
Why sometime I need to passing the first option as a parameter but sometime I need to pass the second option?

::class is of type KClass
::class.java is of type Class
depending on which your function requires, you need to provide the correct one

The first one is only available on the JVM platform. It is the Class<> you’d normally use for JVM reflection. The second is a KClass<>, used for Kotlin-specific reflection, and is available on all platforms (including Native and JS), albeit with limited reflection functionality

Understand now. Thank you @Luca Nicoletti and @Casey Brooks

@Casey Brooks was more specific 😄
