A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

Hi there. For testing the new IR compiler backend <https://blog.jetbrains.com/kotlin/2021/02/the-jvm-backend-is-in-beta-let-s-make-it-stable-together/|the documentation says> to add the following block to the Gradle build file:

```compileKotlin {
    kotlinOptions.useIR = true
}```
this gives a build error for Android projects. If I add the following under `android` in my `build.gradle` file it seems to work. Am I correct?

```kotlinOptions {
    useIR = true
}```

```A problem occurred evaluating project ':app'.
&gt; Could not find method compileKotlin() for arguments [build_76sqb1kgwpwwcl6cpgdem0k5y$_run_closure3@24388d8e] on project ':app' of type org.gradle.api.Project.```

I have updated the plugin in Android Studio and I am using Kotlin 1.4.31
