A bug about Private class InternalApi is unused.

[nuhkoca]

Hello,

I implemented Codefactor for one of my repositories. However, it mentions a weird issue.

Private class InternalApi is unused.

I have InternalApi annotation class and use it inside my class as follows:

DataModule.kt

@Retention(BINARY)
@Qualifier
private annotation class InternalApi

@Module
object DataModule {

    @InternalApi
    @Provides
    @Singleton
    internal fun provideGson(): Gson {
        return GsonBuilder().apply {
            setFieldNamingPolicy(UPPER_CAMEL_CASE_WITH_SPACES)
            serializeNulls()
            setLenient()
        }.create()
    }

    @InternalApi
    @Provides
    @Singleton
    internal fun provideHttpLoggingInterceptor(): HttpLoggingInterceptor {
        return HttpLoggingInterceptor().apply { level = Level.BODY }
    }

Could you please tell me how to solve this issue? Thanks,

@nuhkoca Thanks for reporting - this seems like a false positive coming from Detekt (reported). UnusedPrivateClass rule is now disabled as default until resolved by arturbosch/detekt.

Thanks for informing @cordis-dev now it works as intended.
