Kotlin compiler error: inherited platform declaration clashes #1690
Description
Describe the bug
As a Kotlin programmer, I would like to create an Exception that extends both GraphQLError and RuntimeException
data class KotlinGraphqlException(val msg: String, val e: Throwable? = null) :
RuntimeException(msg, e),
GraphQLError
{
override fun getErrorType() = ErrorType.ValidationError
}This is possible in Java, but not in Kotlin because both GraphQLError and RuntimeException have an inherited message property
Work-around: we currently have to define this class in Java. It's the only Java class in our project :/
Request: add a base class for Kotlin users that extends both GraphQLError and RuntimeException
I could hack my way by extending graphql.schema.CoercingParseLiteralException that does it, but it's not semantically correct.

I don"t see how we can fix this. We wont fix it specifically for Kotlin per se.

The fix would be to add to the library a class that implements both:
public class SomeException extends GraphQLException implements GraphQLError {}andimarek commentedon Jan 19, 2020
we merged and released a GraphQLErrorException .. see #1743
