Hi folks, Is Kotlin Incremental compilation a behavior specific to build tools as IDEA internal build system or Gradle? If I am developing Kotlin things without IDEA and Gradle, will

kotlinc

create ABI Snapshot for my files?

Use

kotlinc -X

for browse extended options

Thanks. I'm using

-X

version and I think that is not using incremental compilation as:

kotlinc -verbose -Xenable-incremental-compilation ... -include-runtime -d main.jar

No one

.bin

file was generated in my current directory. Maybe I'm using in a wrong way. I'm looking compiler source to understand.

AFAIK it is specific to build system and plain kotlinc does not use IC ATM.
