Kotlin Reflection scenarios to Access Private Properties in Data Class with Multiple Constructors
I've searched everywhere and can't find a clear answer... I've looked through the documentation and I'm still confused about I'm working on a personal project and I've searched everywhere and can't find a clear answer. I'm working with an scenario when using reflection to access private properties of a Kotlin data class that has multiple constructors. I have a data class defined as follows: ```kotlin data class User(val name: String, private val age: Int) { constructor(name: String) : this(name, 0) } ``` When I try to access the private `age` property using reflection, it throws an `IllegalAccessException`. Here’s the code snippet I’m using to access the property: ```kotlin val user = User("Alice", 30) val ageField = user::class.java.getDeclaredField("age") ageField.isAccessible = true // This line causes IllegalAccessException val ageValue = ageField.get(user) ``` I expected to be able to access the private property since I set `isAccessible` to true, but I'm getting an exception: ``` java.lang.IllegalAccessException: Class <your.package.name>.YourClass can not access a member of class <your.package.name>.User with modifiers "private" ``` I've also tried using `@JvmField` annotation on the `age` property, hoping it would change its visibility, but that didn't work as expected either. I am using Kotlin 1.6.0 and running this code on the JVM. Is there a correct approach to access private properties in data classes with multiple constructors? Any insights would be greatly appreciated! This is part of a larger CLI tool I'm building. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I'm working on a mobile app that needs to handle this. Any advice would be much appreciated.
