Compiler targeting the JVM
Compiling Hello.kt into a jar (will include manifest)
kotlinc-jvm Hello.kt -d Hello.jar
Run a kotlin program.
Run a compiled jar on the JVM
kotlin Hello.jar
When the compiler is called without any arguments it opens the REPL.
In the REPL an external file can be loaded using :load <filename>
:load TestLoad.kt
main(arrayOf("elem1", "elem2")) // res1: kotlin.Int = 2
println("length of array is ${main(arrayOf("elem1", "elem2"))}")
