See the previous commit for information on the kotlin-reflect vs
kotlin-reflect-api distinction.
Add kotlin-reflect as an explicit runtime dependency of most of the test
configurations because even though they all depend on tests-common, the
runtime dependency on kotlin-reflect is not exported from tests-common
to other modules because the projectTests dependency is not transitive.
This is needed only for faster compilation of the Kotlin project itself
and has no effect on the public artifact
org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-reflect.
The problem this is solving is the rebuild of the project once anything
has been changed in modules in 'core' (even inside function bodies, i.e.
a non-API change). Previously, changes in 'core' led to the compilation
of kotlin-reflect, which led to the rebuild of all modules depending on
kotlin-reflect directly or indirectly (which is almost all modules in
the project) because kotlin-reflect's artifacts are custom-built and the
changes can not be picked up incrementally. But 99.9% of the time the
initial changes in 'core' could not have any effect on the usages of
kotlin-reflect, because classes from those modules are moved to an
internal package in kotlin-reflect and thus are an internal
implementation detail.
Now, changes in 'core' still lead to the compilation of kotlin-reflect
and to the process of building the custom jar. But if a module depends
on kotlin-reflect-api, not kotlin-reflect, then the incremental
difference checker will detect that the module does not have to be
recompiled if there hasn't been any changes to the API of
kotlin-reflect-api. Which means that the module will not be rebuilt on
every change in 'core'.
This commit only introduces the new module. The dependencies
(kotlin-reflect -> kotlin-reflect-api) are replaced in the next commit.
... and invoke it directly in kotlin-reflect's build file, instead of
running another instance of compiler to evaluate a script. Also only
strip kotlin.Metadata, since it's the only annotation with heavy
metadata on Kotlin-generated class files
This allows to get rid of the dependency on descriptors.runtime from
compiler/IDE tests which is problematic: classes there clash with the
classes in kotlin-reflect, which reference declarations in shadowed
packages
The new name is more convenient and precise because this module is no
longer only about loading declarations from Java, it also contains
implementation of loading Kotlin declarations from .class files, as well
as type mapping abstractions, JVM ABI specifications, etc.
- Add method "doTestWithStdLib" which launches test with stdlib
- Change GenerateTests.kt to generate cfg tests with stdlib from
folders 'cfgWithStdLib' and 'cfgVariablesWithStdLib'
