Is there online documentation anywhere for the Kotlin runtime API?&nbsp;&nbsp;It looks like there is useful stuff in there but I can't find documentation for it anywhere.

Thanks,

Ian.

Here is the apidocs for Kotlin's stdlib: [http://jetbrains.github.com/kotlin/apidoc/stdlib/](http://jetbrains.github.com/kotlin/apidoc/stdlib/)

runtime apidocs: [http://jetbrains.github.com/kotlin/versions/snapshot/apidocs/](http://jetbrains.github.com/kotlin/versions/snapshot/apidocs/)

Thanks!&nbsp;&nbsp;You might want to consider linking to these more prominently, I spent about 5 minutes looking for this and couldn't find it.

Actually that first one is a bit old I think, this is the best way to find the API docs: [http://jetbrains.github.com/kotlin/](http://jetbrains.github.com/kotlin/)

which links to the runtime API docs you mentioned: [http://jetbrains.github.com/kotlin/versions/snapshot/apidocs/](http://jetbrains.github.com/kotlin/versions/snapshot/apidocs/)

I’ll try add a redirect to that old link you used

OK that old link should hopefully now redirect to the new API link: [http://jetbrains.github.com/kotlin/versions/snapshot/apidocs/index.html](http://jetbrains.github.com/kotlin/versions/snapshot/apidocs/index.html)

I build kotlin from source code, but "ant doc" generates nothing .

I think build.xml needs to be updated.

I fixed a regression over the weekend that was causing lots of links to fail. I wonder could you refresh your browser and see if they are fixed now? If not let me know the page thats got a bad link please & I'll try fix it ASAP.

Note that there’s currently a [pending issue](http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-1524) that we can’t yet use the AST / compiler to proeprly resolve local type names in wiki links of the form [[SomeType]] to a proper link (any help appreciated on fixing that!) - though I’ve added a (hacky) work around for now.
