Anonymous objects in the scope of an inline functions are copied to
all call-sites. This makes them part of the public ABI of a Kotlin
library.
We introduce a flag to mark all classes in the scope of an inline
function. When compiling with assertions enabled, we check that
this flag is set whenever we inline an anonymous object from another
module.
In the stdlib implementation, render "!" if the type is only
nullability-flexible. Otherwise, render "($lower..$upper)".
Note that full kotlin-reflect has a much more complicated logic (see
`DescriptorRendererImpl.renderFlexibleType`) that renders things like
`(Mutable)List` and so on. It is not a goal of the stdlib implementation
to replicate all of that, since it requires copying a large amount of
code, namely the entirety of `JavaToKotlinClassMap` to map Java class
names to Kotlin.
The proper support will come in KT-15518, but that would be a breaking
change even for stable Kotlin without kotlin-reflect. Before that issue
is fixed, represent Nothing in types with the Void class, and use a flag
in the no-reflect implementation to remember that it's not actually the
Void class itself.

DefaultConstructorMarker is used as a marker to ensure that a
constructor is unique for companion objects. Prior to this change,
DefaultConstructorMarker was package private.
Being package private worked when calling the
DefaultConstructorMarker-marked constsructor using `invokespecial`,
likely because the JVM may not perform strict access checks in this
situation.
However, when access checks are performed, trying to call a
DefaultConstructorMarker-marked constructor will fail. This could happen
if the constructor was called using reflection or the MethodHandle API.
These APIs may be used by tools that perform bytecode instrumentation
on Kotlin JVM bytecode, such as Robolectric. It also caused problems
when using ByteBuddy validation.

Report a separate error when class files compiled with FIR are in
dependencies, in addition to the one for class files compiled with FE
1.0 + JVM IR.

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
Instead of generating overrides for getOwner/getName/getSignature in
each anonymous class representing a callable reference, pass them to the
superclass' constructor and store as fields. This occupies some small
memory but helps to reduce the size of the generated class files, and
will be helpful for adding further runtime information to callable
references, such as information about implicit conversions this
reference has been subject to.
Represent owner as java.lang.Class + boolean instead of
KDeclarationContainer, so that the unnecessary wrapping Class->KClass
wouldn't happen before it's needed, and also to make sure all callable
references remain serializable.
Note that the argument type where the "is declaration container a class"
is passed is int instead of boolean. The plan is to pass the
aforementioned implicit conversion information as bits of this same
integer value.
#KT-27362 Fixed
Instead of non-existing `kotlin.KotlinPackage`, which led to
NoClassDefFoundError as soon as reflection tried to call getOwner on a
builtin callable reference, use a reference to a new physical class
`kotlin.jvm.internal.Intrinsics$Kotlin`. This will allow to support
KT-17151.
Note that for API version less than 1.4, this will still lead to
NoClassDefFoundError, but this is not worse than the current situation
where it happens anyway.
From now on, the old JVM backend will report an error by default when
compiling against class files produced by the JVM IR backend. This is
needed because we're not yet sure that the ABI generated by JVM IR is
fully correct and do not want to land in a 2-dimensional compatibility
situation where we'll need to consider twice more scenarios when
introducing any breaking change in the language. This is generally OK
since the JVM IR backend is still going to be experimental in 1.4.
However, for purposes of users which _do_ need to compile something with
the old backend against JVM IR, we provide two new compiler flags:
* -Xallow-jvm-ir-dependencies -- allows to suppress the error when
compiling with the old backend against JVM IR.
* -Xir-binary-with-stable-api -- allows to mark the generated binaries
as stable, when compiling anything with JVM IR, so that dependent
modules will compile even with the old backend automatically. In this
case, the author usually does not care for the generated ABI, or s/he
ensures that it's consistent with the one expected by the old compiler
with some external tools.
Internally, this is implemented by storing two new flags in
kotlin.Metadata: one tells if the class file was compiled with the JVM
IR, and another tells if the class file is stable (in case it's compiled
with JVM IR). Implementation is similar to the diagnostic reported by
the pre-release dependency checker.
Similarly to previous commit, this method was unused since its
introduction before 1.0, so we're changing its semantics to throw NPE
and starting to use it with API version >= 1.4.
#KT-22275 In Progress
This method was introduced in c204e8fc67 "just in case" and was never
used. Therefore we're free to change its semantics and use it in all new
generated code (with API version >= 1.4), without even worrying that the
newly used API will leak from inline functions in stdlib when used with
an older API version. Since we agreed to change the type of thrown
exceptions to java.lang.NPE in KT-22275, invoke a new method
throwJavaNpe now which throws that exception instead of KNPE.
Note that the additional method that takes an exception message is still
unused and exists just in case we need to use it in the future. The new
method throwJavaNpe is public also "just in case" we need to invoke it
in the future; currently it's not invoked from the bytecode.
