## The Kotlin Standard Library
|
|
|
|
This module creates the [standard library for kotlin](http://jetbrains.github.com/kotlin/versions/snapshot/apidocs/index.html).
|
|
|
|
### Notes for contributors
|
|
|
|
We use some code generation to apply the various collection-like methods to various different types like arrays, strings, kotlin.Iterable and java.lang.Iterable etc.
|
|
|
|
To run the code generator from a kotlin checkout
|
|
|
|
cd libraries/stdlib
|
|
mvn test-compile exec:java
|
|
|
|
This then runs the [GenerateStandardLib.kt](https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin/blob/master/libraries/stdlib/test/GenerateStandardLib.kt) script to create the source from the files for java.lang.Iterable<T> and java.util.Collection etc. |
