I need to use not exported java classes from `sun` package. It’s not a general task rather required hack, I need to use these classes on predefined and fixed JVM version on a concrete platform. With plain java it’s pretty trivial to make them visible - I only need to export them manually with `--add-exports` parameter. However with Kotlin I got into trouble: - koltin compiler doesn’t support `--add-exports` - passing `--add-exports` parameter to `javaCompile` task (Gradle) fails - [kotlin compiler checks module accessibility by itself and gives an error](https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin/blob/1.3.60/compiler/frontend.java/src/org/jetbrains/kotlin/resolve/jvm/checkers/JvmModuleAccessibilityChecker.kt#L79). I saw a similar topic with [relevant example](https://discuss.kotlinlang.org/t/using-sun-awt-image-with-java-11/15127/3). So for simplicity let’s assume that I need the same `sun.awt.image` class. Is there any way to export these classes with kotlin? Other solutions are also welcome. ---
