Back-End (JVM) internal error. Why do i get this IDE error but others with the same code do not?

Question

I'm part of a group that is developing a program in Kotlin. I have recently pulled fresh code off the development branch. The problem is i get this strange error. I am the only person that gets it; my groupmates have the same code and it runs fine for them.

I've tried googling for the error. I didn't find any help as it is quite a specific one. Plus like i said my groupmates do not get this error. It is therefore probably not related to the code.

The error i get is this:

Error:Kotlin: [Internal Error] java.lang.IllegalStateException: Backend Internal error: Exception during code generation

I'm sure this has to do with my IDE or some local setting. Again, my groupmates don't get this error. The file that is mentioned in the error, EndRoundState.kt, however looks like this. If this helps clarify my problem.

package nl.han.asd.a1.network.networkstates

class EndRoundState(networkLogic: NetworkLogic, var players: MutableList<Player>, hash: String, val clock: IClock) : NetworkState(networkLogic) {

    private var rightstate = true
    private val endRoundDuration = 5000 //How long should the program be in this state? default = 5000
    private val checkTimerInterval = 500L //How often should we check if the timer has expired. default = 500L

    init {
        var hashes: MutableList<String> = mutableListOf()
        players.forEach {
            if (it.hash != null) {
                hashes.add(it.hash.toString())
            }
        }
        val rightHash = getRightHash(hashes)
        if (hash == rightHash) {
            this.networkLogic.correctGameState(hash)
        } else {
            rightstate = false
        }
        GlobalScope.launch {
            //launch a coroutine that will run alongside the other code. Think of it as a thread-lite. This will change the state after endRoundDuration expires
            val endTime: Long = clock.getCurrentTime() + endRoundDuration
            while (true) {
                delay(checkTimerInterval)
                if (clock.getCurrentTime() >= endTime) {
                    networkLogic.startNewRound()
                    return@launch
                }
            }
        }
    }

                    this.networkLogic.setGameState(gameData.data.game)
                }
            }

            RECONNECT_REQUEST -> TODO()

    }

    private fun ignore() {

    }

    private fun getRightHash(hashes: MutableList<String>): String {
        val frequenciesByHash = hashes.groupingBy { it }.eachCount()
        var highestCount = 0
        var rightHash: String? = null
        frequenciesByHash.forEach {
            if (it.value > highestCount) {
                highestCount = it.value
                rightHash = it.key
            }
        }

        return run {if(rightHash.isNullOrEmpty()) "" else rightHash!!}
    }
}

I just want the code to compile on my machine, like it does for my collegues. It does compile through Maven, just not through IntelliJ.

Thank you very much!

Answer 1

I fixed by just upgrading kotlin plugin. My plugin version currently is 1.3.41-release-IJ2018.2-1

Answer 2

I resolved this issue by uninstalling IntelliJ including all settings/plugins and reinstalling. Uninstalling the IDE without removing settings/plugins did not work.
