How would I pass "`--add-exports java.base/jdk.internal.misc=ALL-UNNAMED` " to compileKotlin in gradle? it's not a valid parameter but it still complains when compiling and using Unsafe

so what should I do for now?

don't use internal JDK classes, or use them in a non-modular project

how do I make my code non-modular then?

compile with Java 8, and if you are on Java 9 at runtime, then the

--add-exports

flag can be added to jvm args there

it's a method that reads a Long (or int/short/etc depending on the method) from a given byte array with given offset and endianness

I see no such method in jdk.internal.misc

I tried setting project JDK to java 1.8 but now it doesn't recognize the Unsafe class anymore

why not just use ByteBuffer then?

ByteBuffer.wrap(byteArray).apply { position(index) }.getLong()
