Local declarations obtain names prefixed with outer function's name. Only simple name (i.e. without mangling) of outer function used in this case. This raises a problem in case of inline functions with object literals. Currently, they are not copied, but exported from module. Consider two inline functions foo with different signatures, both declare object literals. In this case both literals are exported as foo$f, so only one will be accessible from outside.
JavaScript Translation
This module performs the translation of Kotlin source code to JavaScript.
There are various Kotlin APIs to JavaScript environments and libraries in the js.libraries project.
Compiling the Kotlin Standard Library for JavaScript
The Kotlin Standard Library for JS is built with gradle, see the corresponding module's ReadMe.
Reusing JVM based test cases in JavaScript
Any Kotlin test cases using the org.junit.Test annotation and the kotlin.test package, such as this test case are automatically converted to JavaScript using QUnit.
This allows the test cases to be run directly in a web page in any web browser.
Using the Kotlin Library in JavaScript
There is a simple sample which shows how to use the Kotlin Standard Library from inside JavaScript in a web page.
