Release candidate version in readme doesn't work

[lenguyenthanh]

When I follow the setup in readme:

plugins {
     id("org.jetbrains.kotlinx.kover") version "0.5.0-RC"
}

Gradle tasks always failed. After I downgrade kover to 0.4.0, everything is working fine.

I think the problem is we need some to add some maven repository in order to use release candidate versions.

Hi,
may you clarify with what error the build crashes?
You may copy the error from Gradle logs

[lenguyenthanh]

When I run with ./gradlew check --debug it will run forever, here is when it got stucked:

What logs will there be if you run the build without using previously started daemons?
eg /gradlew check --debug --no-daemon

[lenguyenthanh]

I have the same result with ./gradlew check --debug --no-daemon
Maybe I need to clarify my dependencies: I'm using gradle wrapper 7.3.3 and Kotlin 1.6.10.
And my maven repositories:

repositories {
  mavenCentral()
  maven { url = uri("https://jitpack.io") }
  maven { url = uri("https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots")}
}

Can you provide a small reproducer project?

[lenguyenthanh]

yes, I can. I will create sometime today or tomorrow.

[lenguyenthanh]

I don't have time today, so I'll create a sample project over the weekend or next week!

[lenguyenthanh]

Hey, I have a sample here: lenguyenthanh/sparrow#4.

[shanshin]

Thanks for the reproducer!
Try to apply the plugin in the root project, instead of the app, this should solve the problems.

[lenguyenthanh]

oh, thanks for the tip. Is this something kover will fixed or is it caused by something else?
If the latter should we add something to Readme? I can create a PR.

[shanshin]

We will fix this in the plugin code in the next release.

[shanshin]

Fixed in 0.5.0
