Hey all - I'm hoping someone can help here - still working on my gradle... probably around bluebelt level here...

So what's I'm needing to do, GROOVY - I have an enterprise application which must stay on Kotlin 1.2.71 for the build.... but I'm trying to add Dokka to the project which I haven't gotten to work on anything less that Kotlin 1.4..

Does anyone know if there is a way in gradle to build on kotlin plugin/std-lib 1.2 but have JUST Dokka tasks go on 1.4???

Thanks in advance! :)

Just curious, are you by chance stuck on 1.2 because of corda? I'm in a same boat so I can feel the pain 😀

@Big Chungus I am curious - why Corda could not use newer Kotlin versions? 🤔

[Big Chungus]

No clue, but it's stuck on 1.2 sadly... And as such, I'm too as a consumer

[Chris Miller]

I'm guessing it's this? https://github.com/corda/corda/issues/6888

[tapchicoma]

but it was fixed in Kotlin 1.5.0 🤔

[Big Chungus]

I think the devs just don;t want to spend time on upgradling. Corda 5 will be bumped to 1.4 at least

[Anthony Nixon]

Lol caught red handed. Yeah Corda 4 is locked to 1.2 it's not the case w/ Corda 5. But that is developer preview at the moment .. :)

[tapchicoma]

regarding your original question - probably try to ask this in #dokka
