/**
|
||||
* This provider allows to get symbols for so-called built-in classes.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Built-in classes are the classes which are considered mandatory for compiling any Kotlin code.
|
||||
* For this reason these classes must be provided even in a case when no standard library exists in classpath.
|
||||
* One can find a set of these classes inside core/builtins directory (look at both src/kotlin and native/kotlin subdirectories).
|
||||
* In particular: all primitives, all arrays, collection-like interfaces, Any, Nothing, Unit, etc.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* For non-JVM platforms, all / almost all built-in classes exist also in the standard library, so this provider works as a fallback.
|
||||
* For the JVM platform, some classes are mapped to Java classes and do not exist themselves,
|
||||
* so this provider is mandatory for the JVM compiler to work properly even with the standard library in classpath.
