| ## Code Generation for Standard Library |
| |
| Some of the code in the standard library is created by code generation based on templates. |
| For example, many `Array` methods need to be implemented separately for `Array<T>`, `ByteArray`, `ShortArray`, `IntArray`, etc. |
| |
| To run the code generator use the following command in the root directory of the project: |
| |
| ./gradlew :tools:kotlin-stdlib-gen:run |
| |
| > Note: on Windows type `gradlew` without the leading `./` |
| |
| This then runs the script which generates a significant part of stdlib sources from the [templates](src/templates) authored with a special kotlin based DSL. |
