This didn't get much traction on SO so xposting:

If I have the following inline class:

interface StringId {
  val raw: String
}

@JvmInline
value class MyId(override val raw: String) : StringId

is it safe to pass it to a Retrofit function?

interface MyApiEndpoints {
  @GET("/fetch/{id}")
  suspend fun fetch(@Path("id") id: MyId): Response<JsonObject>
}

You could have the answer within 5 minutes were you to write a test, no ?

I'm more worried about edge cases that I'm not aware of.

Also looking for a canonical answer in case anyone else has this question in the future.

for now Retrofit is only looking at Java reflection, so it should see just a strangely mangled function name but otherwise work

I imagine https://github.com/square/retrofit/issues/3075 could complicate things here though
