The reason for this is that this flag is used right now in 'cli-common'
to workaround the problem that this module is compiled with API version
1.4, but runs with stdlib of version 1.3 (bundled to Gradle). The same
problem would appear with adapted function references, since we use
kotlin/jvm/internal/AdaptedFunctionReference in the bytecode, only
available since 1.4.
The fix is to generate adapted references in this case as subclasses of
the already existing kotlin/jvm/internal/FunctionReference. This can
change behavior in some extreme corner cases (because such references
can now be observed to have reflection capabilities), but it's an -X
argument anyway.
Another option would be to introduce another compiler argument
specifically for this, but it looks like it would only complicate things
without much benefit.
This fixes the problem in JVM IR backend which didn't pass bound
receiver value of an adapted function reference to the superclass
(kotlin/jvm/internal/AdaptedFunctionReference), which caused equals to
work incorrectly on such references (see changes in box tests).
Previously, bound adapted function reference was represented as
IrFunctionExpression to an adapter function which calls the callee. The
value of the bound receiver in that case could only be found in the body
of that adapter function. This is not very convenient, so this change
makes psi2ir produce a block of the adapter function + reference to it.
The bound receiver value is then found in the reference. This is
basically similar to what ProvisionalFunctionExpressionLowering is doing
for all function expressions. And since this IR structure is already
supported in FunctionReferenceLowering, the problem in the JVM IR is
fixed without any additional modifications.
However, inliners do not support this IR structure yet, see KT-38535 and
KT-38536.
It's used as a superclass for anonymous classes for adapted function
references. Its main feature is that it _doesn't_ inherit from KFunction
(as opposed to FunctionReference), as per the decision to postpone
reflection support for adapted function references in KT-36024.
#KT-36024 Fixed
Function references are now equal if they refer to the same function,
and if the parameter/return type adaptation, which happens when a
reference is used where some function type is expected, is exactly the
same. This includes the number of expected positional parameters (which
can be affected by defaults/varargs), whether the coercion of vararg
parameter to Array type happened, and whether the coercion of return
type to Unit happened.
#KT-37543 Fixed
Without this commit, JVM name mapping logic in BE does not work for FIR,
because FIR cannot use old BuiltInsPackageFragmentImpl descriptor.
In this commit we add our own implementation thus fixing
a pack of FIR black box tests.
Now FE IR -> BE IR transformation is performed in multiple stages
controller by Fir2IrConverter. Stages are
* files & classes registration
* supertypes & type parameters handling
* functions & properties signature generation
* body generation
After each step we have guarantee (with exception of local classes &
type inference combination, and external symbols) that required symbols
(class/function/property/variable/type parameter)
are already bound to real declarations and have correct parents.
This commit also fixes incorrect parents for local classes
In codegen tests on Android, everything is being run with kotlin-reflect
in the classpath. So a package is no longer represented by a
reflect-less PackageReference, but by a full-blown KPackageImpl. Use a
less specific supertype ClassBasedDeclarationContainer instead, the one
which is a supertype of both PackageReference and KPackageImpl, and
which still allows to get the underlying jClass.
