Follow-up question: where is the script cache located?
I'd like to not pay the price of compilation each time (which is measured in tens of seconds).

[mbonnin]

It's in ~/Library/Cache/main.kts.compiled.cache on MacOS, cf https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlin-script-examples/pull/9/files

[louiscad]

Would be nice to make a custom GitHub Action that caches that

[louiscad]

I mean, one that we could add into our workflow files, pretty much like the new official Gradle one

[louiscad]

Do you have any idea on how the names of the cached files are calculated?
Wondering if there's a way to predict it and be able to detect when an entry should be removed.

[mbonnin]

Ideally, the logic should be in kotlin itself since it knows about everything:
• kotlin --script-cache-remove myscript.main.kts
• kotlin --script-cache-remove-all

[mbonnin]

But I don't really know otherwise, sorry
