Non-canonical modifier order

Last modified: 03 December 2024

Reports modifiers that do not follow the order recommended by the style guide.

Sort modifiers quick-fix can be used to amend the code automatically.

Examples:

private inline fun correctOrder(f: () -> Unit) {} // <== Ok

infix private fun Int.wrongOrder(expr: Int) {} // <== wrong order, quick-fix amends the modifiers to "private infix"
