I upgraded my little app to be 1.4-M2 and had to roll back to 1.4-M1 as I got this error at runtime:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: 'kotlinx.serialization.CompositeEncoder kotlinx.serialization.Encoder.beginStructure(kotlinx.serialization.SerialDescriptor)'

Make sure you're using correct versions in your build.gradle:

plugins {
    id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.jvm' version '1.4-M2'
    id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.plugin.serialization' version '1.4-M2'
}

dependencies {
    implementation "org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-serialization-runtime:0.20.0-1.4-M2"
}

yup, although i had not updated the serialization runtime, it still fails 😞

kotlinVersion=1.4-M2
kotlinXVersion=0.20.0-1.4-M2

Are you sure you have recompiled the code after changing the dependency? I can't reproduce it with 0.20.0-1.4-M2.

import kotlinx.serialization.*
import kotlinx.serialization.json.*

@Serializable
data class EmailData(val email: String)
@Serializable
data class ToList(val to: List<EmailData>)
@Serializable
data class FromList(val from: EmailData)
@Serializable
data class EmailContentType(val type: String, val value: String)
@Serializable
data class Data(val personalizations: List<ToList>, val from: EmailData, val subject: String, val content: List<EmailContentType>)
@Suppress("EXPERIMENTAL_API_USAGE")
class Mailer {
    val sendGridApiKey = "nsthns"
    val sendGridRecipient = "nthnsth"
    fun sendmail(subject: String, content: String) {
        val email = EmailData(sendGridRecipient)
        val data = Data(listOf(ToList(listOf(email))), email, subject, listOf(EmailContentType("text/plain", content)))
        val json = Json.stringify(Data.serializer(), data)
    }
}

fun main() {
    Mailer().sendmail("","")
}

i had done a gradle clean and it failed locally -- but when i built it as native that obviously forced the recompilation correctly, and it is all working now. Thanks for your help.
