Hi All, I was just wondering if anyone has faced the build process going in a loop when using kotlinx.serialization?

Only seems to happen when I use the package in my code. After just syncing gradle and not using the package in my code it works. But if i add
```import kotlinx.serialization.*

@Serializable
data class MyModel(val a: Int)```
It causes the build to hang

I can post my build.gradle files if that would help?

Can you please create an issue at <http://kotl.in/issue> with a sample project to reproduce if possible.

Hey <@UB3CEA8QG>, would raising it on the Github repo be okay? Or would you prefer the kotlin issue tracker?

Please use the issue tracker: <http://kotl.in/issue>

Hey <@UB3CEA8QG> I worked out the issue, “Starting from Kotlin 1.3-RC2, serialization plugin is shipped with the rest of Kotlin compiler distribution, and the IDEA plugin is bundled into the Kotlin plugin.” from the README.md.

I was including `id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.plugin.serialization' version '1.4.0-rc'`  in the plugins section of my build.gradle file. Removing it resolved my issue.

Is this something that having a bug would be helpful for? The README could be updated to remove this from the configuration instructions or more clearly mention it’s not required.

Sure, please report to <https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/issues>
