This plugin adds a clickable inlay hint for the implicit invoke call made when a Kotlin instance with an operator fun invoke() method is called as a function.
Clicking the hint will navigate to the invoke method.
This is useful because there is no current way to do this directly in the IDE.
E.g.
class Reverser {
operator fun invoke(str: String) = str.reverse()
}
val reverser = Reverser()
println(reverser(“!dlrow olleH”))
Navigating to the declaration of reverser on the last line will take you to the declaration of the val reverser.
Navigating to the type of reverser will take you to the class Reverser, but you will still have to locate the invoke method yourself, which is not always straightforward.
The inlay added by this plugin gives you a direct link to the invoke method, which is handy when browsing and debugging code that uses objects as functions.
