The Kotlin extension has been completely reworked. It now compiles using a local installation of the Kotlin compiler, making it possible to test with multiple versions of Kotlin. Dokka now has its own extension. There's also a Kotlin project template on GitHub with support for the Dokka and Detekt extensions.

Annotation processors are easy to use with bld. Generally, you'll just need to include processor as a dependency, for example:

public class ExampleBuild extends Project { public ExampleBuild() { // ... scope(provided) .include(dependency("com.example", "annotator", version(1, 0, 0))); } }

If the processor is generating source files, you can easily specify where they should be saved, using the -s javac option, for example:

/** * Saves generated source files in the {@code build/generated} directory. */ @Override public void compile() throws Exception { var generated = new File(buildDirectory(), "generated"); var ignore = generated.mkdir(); compileOperation().compileOptions().addAll(List.of("-s", generated.getAbsolutePath())); super.compile(); }

To incorporate the generated source code into the source tree, add this directory as an additional source location in your IDE.
