Hello. If I recall correctly, there used to be documentation in the Detekt GitHub repo containing the steps to run for those authoring pull requests. Not sure if it was removed or am I just not seeing it? 🤔

It’s here https://github.com/detekt/detekt/blob/master/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md 👍

For example, the Gradle tasks to run.

nope it’s not. As a reference our CI runs the same

gw build

task.

I’ve tried so far with JDK 11 and JDK 8 and seem to keep getting stuck there.

Can you try to

gw --stop

?

I’ve done

gw --stop

a few times already.

So please note that

gw build

actually takes some time 🤔

Hmm… at least when using JDK 11, I get the following `StackOverflowError`:

ExplicitCollectionElementAccessMethodSpec > reports map element access with get method STANDARD_ERROR

mmm no idea 🤔 Haven’t really seen this before. I’d say let kill all the gradle daemons & java processes, do a

gw clean

and try again

👍
