KotshiApplicationJsonAdapterFactory does not have a companion object

[nicofari]

Hi
I am totally new to moshi/kotshi
I was following the readme of this project.
Adding the line

@KotshiJsonAdapterFactory
object ApplicationJsonAdapterFactory : JsonAdapter.Factory by KotshiApplicationJsonAdapterFactory

I got the error

Classifier 'KotshiJsonAdapterFactory' does not have a companion object, and thus must be initialized here

I checked other examples but haven't found any clue ...
thanks for any help/tips

Some things to verify:

• You've added both the API and the compiler dependencies
• Are the imports correct (please post the entire file)

in gradle.properties i have:

junitVersion=5.7.2
kotlinVersion=1.8.10
http4kVersion=4.41.0.0
kotshiVersion=2.10.2

[nicofari]

If I understand well (I am reading this example: https://github.com/oharaandrew314/http4k-api-on-lambda) I have to use a factory name that does not exist, it has to been generated by kotshi.
But when I issue gradlew clean assemble it does not generated in my project
while, in that project, it does ...
don't understand which task in the gradle file generates it though ...

[nicofari]

I've found that, if i use "gradlew clean compileKotlin" the code is generated (thought "assemble" would execute everything before)

[ansman]

Yeah, you need to build once for the code to be generated.
