When using the Kotlin-DSL, dependencies can be specified with implementation(...) or apiElements or ... but not with api(...). Shouldn't this also be possible?

[gildor]

do you have java-library plugin in your plugins dsl?

[guenther]

Nope. I guess that adding the plugin, will solve that. But why is then implementation and apiElements available?

[gildor]

Because this is part of java plugin (and Kotlin JVM plugin implicitly add dependency to java plugin)
