Redundant label

Reports redundant labels which cause compilation errors since Kotlin 1.4.

Since Kotlin 1.0, one can mark any statement with a label:

fun foo() { L1@ val x = L2@bar() }

However, these labels can be referenced only in a limited number of ways:

  • break / continue from a loop

  • non-local return from an inline lambda or inline anonymous function

Such labels are prohibited since Kotlin 1.4.
