Hey guys, I have a simple data class for configuration like the following

@Configuration
@ConfigurationProperties(prefix = "my-config")
data class MyConfig(
    var blacklist: List<BlackListEntry> = emptyList(),
)

data class BlackListEntry(
    val name: String,
    val values: List<String> = emptyList(),
)

And I'm using

spring.config.import

to import an additional application.yaml in my environment. The thing is I get

java.lang.IllegalStateException: No setter found for property: blacklist

When I change the blacklist to be a MutableList it works, does spring first instantiate MyConfig for the base application.yaml and then try to call the setters with the additional imports? Shouldn't it merge the yamls first and only call the constructor once? Any ideias how can I keep the list as immutable? Im using spring-boot 3.2 btw Thanks in advance ✌️

Ah, found #C0BLHCSHZ, see there https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C0BLHCSHZ/p1729579151704499

I have a really strange issue that I can't quite figure out. I've upgraded to Spring Boot 3 in one of my projects and after this it seems

@GetMapping

is working as usual but something has changed with

@PostMapping

? It correctly maps the

@GetMapping

methods but debug logs this for my

@PostMappings

:

Mapped to ResourceHttpRequestHandler [classpath [META-INF/resources/], classpath [resources/], classpath [static/], classpath [public/], ServletContext [/]]

Any ideas what I can do to fix this?

I have just enabled K2 mode in IntelliJ. My spring boot project uses

kotlin-spring

plugin but now I'm seeing

Classes annotated with '@Configuration' could be implicitly subclassed and must not be final

errors for all my configuration classes. Is this a known issue?

Hello 👋 I am using Spring ApplicationEvent in async mode (with the @Async annotation) in a spring-webflux project. There is no documentation about that. Will this have any issue on the workload or something else please in production ?

Anyone know how to get

List

working with

restTemplate.getForObject<List<X>>

kotlin extension? I'm getting class cast exceptions

Currently, I only have experience developing web applications using the Spring Framework. However, I recall that the dependency injection feature in Spring is used for decoupling code. I'm curious about how this functionality is embodied in other types of projects. Could you provide some repositories for reference?

listOf(
    Person(
        name = "foo",
        age = 44,
        fooBar = "lol",
        isImportant = true,
        isNew = true
    )
)

Why does this get serialized into json as

[{"id":null,"name":"foo","age":44,"fooBar":"lol","new":true,"important":true}]

? I.e. missing the

is

prefixes? What's even worse is when I try to deserialize the same json that was just serialized, I'll get errors. Broken by default

Hey hey Kotlin Spring people - could you drop reasons in thread why you would still develop in kotlin especially java so advanced in feature parities these days?

A proposal for bridging Spring

@Configuration

with functional bean registration. Feedback is welcome. https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-framework/issues/18353#issuecomment-2659889622

If you liked Spring Fu, read this proposal 😉

Wasn't spring-fu about full control over the configuration and bean registration process (including when the whole initialization code is executed)? With this new proposal is doesn't seem to be the case (the developer have no way to decide when the

initialize

method is executed). Am I correct?

That's true, and I have refined my comment accordingly. This proposal only focus on the part that is not incompatible with Spring Boot core principles like auto-configuration. Spring Fu was IMO too far away from Spring Boot, we have to find a better tradeoff between explicit configuration and auto-configuration. But this improvement could allow later a more explicit configuration model for Spring Boot if the Boot team and community want to support that.

How does Spring MVC work with kotlin coroutine? Do I always have to use kotlin coroutine for my server code? Any examples would be appreciated.

Anyone here knows what is wrong with

spring-dependency-management

plugin and Kotlin/JS compiler? Not long ago I've reported it breaks incremental compilation of K/JS (https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-74378). Now I have problems with serialization (see: https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C7A1U5PTM/p1740943473638099). I've always thought this plugin just reads some BOMs and auto-applies correct version of various dependencies. But how it is possible that it breaks compilation?

I have just merged into Spring Framework main branch a first-class support for programmatic bean registration for Java and Kotlin.

I'm trying to extend the RabbitMQ

AbstractRoutingConnectionFactory

and override

getTargetConnectionFactory

. My function signature is just

override fun getTargetConnectionFactory(lookupKey: Any?): ConnectionFactory?

but the compiler is rejecting that, and only accepts

override fun getTargetConnectionFactory(lookupKey: Any): ConnectionFactory

. Looking at how

getTargetConnectionFactory

is used, it can clearly accept a null

lookupKey

and return a null

ConnectionFactory

. Am I missing something obvious here? I don't see any nullability annotations on

getTargetConnectionFactory

AbstractRoutingConnectionFactory

or any

package-info.java

that specifies package-wide null behavior. Spring Boot 3.4.3, spring-rabbit 3.2.3, Kotlin 1.9.23.

According to the dependency documentation, the upcoming Spring Boot 3.5 will still be on Kotlin 1.9.x. Is there any information about why they do not upgrade to 2.x?

Hello, I have something that I cannot wrap my head around when it comes to observability and coroutines (in a spring boot application). In particular, we want to restore propagate tracing information through SQS, so we are saving trace information on the producer side within the message, and on the consumer we restore the trace before processing the message. Pseudocode (no worries, more code in thread):

// producer thread, saves its trace information within the message
producer.produce(message.withTraceDetails())

// consumer thread, actually even another application instance
// up to this consumer.read, its an independent trace
val message = consumer.read()
processAfterRestoring(message.traceDetails()) {
  // here the trace is restored from the message
  process(message)
}

fun processAfterRestoring(sourceTrace: Trace, supplier: () -> Any)

The code we have works in normal scenarios, but not when

process(message)

uses coroutines, eg

// here we have TraceONE
val message = consumer.read()
processAfterRestoring(message.traceDetails()) {
  // here the trace is restored from the message
  process(message)
}

fun process(message: Message) {
  // here the trace is restored from the message
  launchNewCoroutine {
    // but here the trace is again TraceONE
    doSomethingOn(message)
  }
}

fun processAfterRestoring(sourceTrace: Trace, supplier: () -> Any)

I reproduce some more code (in thread, hopefully I captured all the relevant pieces). I guess the 3 questions that pop up to me are: • are we restoring traces incorrectly (not kotlin)? • is there some issue with our Spring context config (also not kotlin)? • what magic am I not seeing in

observationRegistry.asContextElement()

that causes the issue (since when we don't use coroutines, restoring works I am kinda discounting the first 2 questions and focusing more on this last one)?

Does Kotlin support the annotations present in

org.springframework.lang

? The online Javadoc for the website does indicate that it does https://docs.spring.io/spring-framework/docs/current/javadoc-api/org/springframework/lang/package-summary.html however, on Kotlin's own source file, it is not mentioned anywhere here: https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin/blob/master/core/compiler.common.jvm/src/org/jetbrains/kotlin/load/java/JvmAnnotationNames.kt. I am confused, does Kotlin support it or not? And if so, how does it do so despite not being listed?

My talk on spring boot + functional kotlin at devnexus is up on youtube: I hope i did it justice!

guys anyone encountered same problem in kotlin spring boot https://stackoverflow.com/questions/79570300/om-mongodb-mongocommandexception-command-failed-with-error-8000-atlaserror

Say I have a

createdAt

field in my

@Entity

. and it gets its value as the Entity is created. Can this info be utilized, so that "all saved entity has non-null createdAt" at kotlin level, or do I have to check against null every time? Or I have no choice but declare it as

var timestamp: Instant? = null,

Are there any out-of-the-box solutions for propagating traces across Kotlin's coroutine

?

Hi folks, can somebody please help me figure out why my app is being booted in 20+ seconds instead of 5-6 like it was just this morning? I didn't do any particular changes to gradle, I didn't update any version dependencies, it just suddenly started to be incredibly slow. I switched to Linux from Windows for the performance and because Gradle kept hanging up in dying on Windows and the only way to continue work was to reboot, everything was blazingly fast but now for no specific reason everything's just slow af
