I want to report a bug

Meta

I cannot create a topic in Bugs category, so I just post it here.

Please look at the bottom class declaration.
OuterClass has a InnerClass.

build.gradle.kts

import org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.tasks.KotlinCompile

plugins {
    kotlin("jvm") version "1.7.20-Beta"
}

group = "zeroarst.com"
version = "1.0-SNAPSHOT"

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    implementation("org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk8")
    implementation("org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-coroutines-core:1.6.4")

    implementation("io.reactivex.rxjava3:rxkotlin:3.0.1")
    implementation(group= "org.hashids", name= "hashids", version= "1.0.3")

    // https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.json/json
    implementation("org.json:json:20220924")


}


tasks.withType<KotlinCompile> {
    kotlinOptions.jvmTarget = "1.8"
    kotlinOptions.languageVersion = "1.8"
}


open class OuterClass {
    open inner class InnerClass
}
object OuterClassInstance: OuterClass() {
    object InnerClassInstance: InnerClass()
}

this block of code causes the error:

object OuterClassInstance: OuterClass() {
    object InnerClassInstance: InnerClass()
}

error details:

It looks like related to this issue. But the state is fixed.

What I want to do is I want to limit InnerClass only be able to instantiate inside OuterClass…

This is a Gradle community forum.
If you want to report a Gradle bug, please open an issue on GitHub at Issues · gradle/gradle · GitHub.
But it seems like you want to report a Kotlin bug here, so you are totally wrong anyway and should report it at https://youtrack.jetbrains.com.
