I am trying to initialize an empty array of strings in the Kotlin class, however the syntax for this seems to elude me, I checked the Kotlin docs, and I think I am doing it right, but I always end up with the following message when creating it:
Error:Execution failed for task ':core:compileDebugJavaWithJavac'. > java.lang.IllegalStateException: Unsupported type java.lang.String[]
I tried the following initialization methods, Android Studio is not red any of them.
var categories = emptyArray<String>() var categories = arrayOf<String>() var categories: Array<String> = emptyArray() var categories: Array<String> = arrayOf()
This seems to be a bug that is interesting enough for my previously stable installation of Kotlin on AS 2.3.2, and again, strange, I get the same build error when trying to create line lists.
So this seems like a bug on my laptop, I use the same code on my desktop, using the same AS version, in the same project, everything is identical, and yet it compiles.
It’s good that the error now affects my desktop, where I use regular Java, not even Kotlin, here is gradle stacktrace:

It does not seem that this is a problem with the plugin or library, I threw everything back to the version, and the problem nevertheless arose.
