Release Notes

• Upgraded kotlin-android external dependency to version 2.3.255 (tag: v2.3.255-414445c) to address ADFA-4029
• Fixed ClassValue compatibility issue on Android API <= 33 through the latest Kotlin compiler fix included in commit 414445c of the appdevforall/kotlin-android repository
• Updated kotlin-analysis-api build configuration with SHA256 checksum verification for the external JAR asset (a98c4b3a3952799e1703ecc0444ac49bce66042b2c0b689d7e4c4b5b35369c3a)

Risks & Best Practices

• External dependency risk: The kotlin-android JAR is sourced from an external GitHub release. Ensure the release and checksum are verified before merging
• Fork dependency: The dependency is from a custom fork (appdevforall/kotlin-android) rather than the upstream Kotlin project. Document the rationale and ensure maintenance plan is in place for divergence from upstream
• Availability risk: The build depends on GitHub releases remaining available. Consider mirroring critical artifacts internally for production builds
• Version specificity: The tag includes both version and commit hash, which provides good traceability but couples the build to a specific Kotlin compiler patch

Walkthrough

The PR updates the kt-android external dependency in the Kotlin Analysis API build configuration by recomputing the ktAndroidTag from the existing ktAndroidVersion and updating the corresponding artifact checksum to match the new artifact.

🐰 A checksum and a tag align,
Like carrots in a garden line,
The artifact now fresh and new,
Dependencies refreshed through and through! 🥕
