Conventions used
There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.
CodeInText: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: "The corresponding sourceSets property should be updated if not using the default convention."
A block of code is set as follows:
sourceSets {
main.kotlin.srcDirs += 'src/main/myKotlin'
main.java.srcDirs += 'src/main/myJava'
}
When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:
sourceSets {
main.java.srcDirs += 'src/main/kotlin/'
}
Any command-line input or output is written as follows:
$ kotlinc hello.kt -include-runtime -d hello.jar.
$ java -jar hello.jar
Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For example, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in the text like this. Here is an example: "In the Select Deployment Target window, select your device, and click on OK."
