Specifies that a JVM default method should be generated for non-abstract Kotlin interface member.

annotation class JvmDefault

Instructs the Kotlin compiler not to generate getters/setters for this property and expose it as a field.

annotation class JvmField

Instructs the Kotlin compiler to generate a multifile class with top-level functions and properties declared in this file as one of its parts. Name of the corresponding multifile class is provided by the JvmName annotation.

annotation class JvmMultifileClass

Specifies the name for the Java class or method which is generated from this element.

annotation class JvmName

Instructs the Kotlin compiler to generate overloads for this function that substitute default parameter values.

annotation class JvmOverloads

Specifies that an additional static method needs to be generated from this element if it's a function. If this element is a property, additional static getter/setter methods should be generated.

annotation class JvmStatic

Instructs compiler to generate or omit wildcards for type arguments corresponding to parameters with declaration-site variance, for example such as Collection<out T> has.

annotation class JvmSuppressWildcards

Sets ACC_SYNTHETIC flag on the annotated target in the Java bytecode.

annotation class JvmSynthetic

Instructs compiler to generate wildcard for annotated type arguments corresponding to parameters with declaration-site variance.

annotation class JvmWildcard

Instructs the Kotlin compiler to treat annotated Java class as pure implementation of given Kotlin interface. "Pure" means here that each type parameter of class becomes non-platform type argument of that interface.

annotation class PurelyImplements

Marks the JVM method generated from the annotated function as strictfp, meaning that the precision of floating point operations performed inside the method needs to be restricted in order to achieve better portability.

annotation class Strictfp

Marks the JVM method generated from the annotated function as synchronized, meaning that the method will be protected from concurrent execution by multiple threads by the monitor of the instance (or, for static methods, the class) on which the method is defined.

annotation class Synchronized

This annotation indicates what exceptions should be declared by a function when compiled to a JVM method.

annotation class Throws

Marks the JVM backing field of the annotated property as transient, meaning that it is not part of the default serialized form of the object.

annotation class Transient

Marks the JVM backing field of the annotated property as volatile, meaning that writes to this field are immediately made visible to other threads.

annotation class Volatile

Returns a KClass instance corresponding to the annotation type of this annotation.

val <T : Annotation> T.annotationClass: KClass<out T>

Returns a Java Class instance corresponding to the given KClass instance.

val <T> KClass<T>.java: Class<T>

Returns the runtime Java class of this object.

val <T : Any> T.javaClass: Class<T>

Returns a Java Class instance corresponding to the given KClass instance. In case of primitive types it returns corresponding wrapper classes.

val <T : Any> KClass<T>.javaObjectType: Class<T>

Returns a Java Class instance representing the primitive type corresponding to the given KClass if it exists.

val <T : Any> KClass<T>.javaPrimitiveType: Class<T>?

Checks if array can contain element of type T.

fun <T : Any> Array<*>.isArrayOf(): Boolean
