I'm trying to use the Kotlin REPL within Android Studio.
However, when I open it, I get the following output:
"E:\Program Files\Android\Arctic Fox\android-studio\jre\bin\java.exe" -Dkotlin.repl.ideMode=true -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -classpath "E:\Program Files\Android\Arctic Fox\android-studio\lib\idea_rt.jar;C:\Users\me\AppData\Local\Temp\classpath901685403.jar" com.intellij.rt.execution.CommandLineWrapper C:\Users\me\AppData\Local\Temp\classpath901685403.jar org.jetbrains.kotlin.cli.jvm.K2JVMCompiler
`CommandLineWrapper` is ill-suited for launching apps on Java 9+.
If the run configuration uses "classpath file", please change it to "@argfile".
Otherwise, please contact support.
Process finished with exit code 1
The closest solution I've been able to find is this one:
Test framework quit unexpectedly - ClassNotFound Exception
which suggests changing a value in the run configuration, however there doesn't seem to be a run configuration avalible for the REPL.
There is one for "Java Scratch", however changing this does not solve the issue.
I'm using the Arctic Fox Beta (2020.3.1 Beta 5), with version 203-1.5.20-release-289-AS7717.8 of the Kotlin plugin.
I have the same error but eventually fixed it by invalidate caches / restart. Btw I'm using Android Studio Arctic Fox | 2020.3.1 RC 1 and Kotlin plugin version 203-1.5.20-release-289-AS7717.8
Keeping the REPL window displaying the above error, again select Tools > Kotlin > Kotlin REPL
A choice is displayed with two items (Project) (Project).app
Select the first option with the name of your project and the REPL starts working.
I changed Run > Edit Configurations... > Templates > Java Scratch > Shorten command line to @argfile (Java 9+) and it fixes the issue.
