Kotlin class inherit from scala abstract class issues

Support
1

I have an example where recently we needed to subclass akka.persistence.AbstractPersistentActorWithAtLeastOnceDelivery

This abstract class has a few things going on, of which also includes scala traits. I get the following error when trying to compile a kotlin class that inherits from it.

class OurPersistentActor : AbstractPersistentActorWithAtLeastOnceDelivery()

The compile error is…
Error:(53, 1) Kotlin: Class ‘OurPersistentActor’ must be declared abstract or implement abstract base class member public abstract fun akka$persistence$AtLeastOnceDeliveryLike$$unconfirmed_$eq(p0: SortedMap<Any!, Delivery!>!): Unit defined in akka.persistence.AbstractPersistentActorWithAtLeastOnceDelivery

Using this base class from Java compiles fine though.

Relevant base class definition…

Problematic field defined in trait I think…

Hello!
Can you tell what Kotlin version and akka dependency do you use?
I’ve just checked with 1.1.2 and

        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.typesafe.akka</groupId>
            <artifactId>akka-persistence-experimental_2.11</artifactId>
            <version>2.3.13</version>
        </dependency>

The following code got compiled successfully

class OurPersistentActor : AbstractPersistentActorWithAtLeastOnceDelivery() {
    override fun receiveCommand(): PartialFunction<Any, BoxedUnit> {
        TODO("not implemented") //To change body of created functions use File | Settings | File Templates.
    }

    override fun receiveRecover(): PartialFunction<Any, BoxedUnit> {
        TODO("not implemented") //To change body of created functions use File | Settings | File Templates.
    }
}

Sorry should have been more specific. I’ve tried both Kotlin 1.1.1 as well as 1.1.2 with no differences. The version of akka that we are using is 2.5.1.
akka_version = ‘2.5.1’
compile “com.typesafe.akka:akka-actor_2.12:$akka_version”
compile “com.typesafe.akka:akka-cluster-tools_2.12:$akka_version”
compile “com.typesafe.akka:akka-cluster-sharding_2.12:$akka_version”
compile “com.typesafe.akka:akka-persistence_2.12:$akka_version”
compile “com.typesafe.akka:akka-persistence-query_2.12:$akka_version”

@denis.zharkov is there something more I can provide to help demonstrate the problem? Would you like me to post a repo to reproduce the problem?

It looks like a bug in scala compiler that probably can be solved in some sense on the side of Kotlin too (see the issue)

BTW, could you please try 2.11 postfix for scalac version?

That worked great. Good find… and thanks for the help.
