[KSP2] KSValidateVisitor throwing nullPointerException instantly and ksp2 not recognizing annotations

[DHuijkman]

Hello this is the first time I ever report an issue for a project so let me know if i need to provide more information.
I was testing out migrating over to KSP2 and ran into some issue's and was wondering if i did something wrong.

Kotlin version used: 2.0.20
KSP version used: 2.0.20-1.0.24

When i run my symbol processor that worked in KSP 1.9.21 I get an issue running the following snippet:
`

override fun process(resolver: Resolver): List<KSAnnotated> {
    val xmlToComposeSymbols = resolver.getSymbolsWithAnnotation(ComposeConverter::class.qualifiedName!!)
    val composeToXmlSymbols = resolver.getSymbolsWithAnnotation(XmlConverter::class.qualifiedName!!)

    val unProcessed = (xmlToComposeSymbols + composeToXmlSymbols).filter { !it.validate() }.toList()

    xmlToComposeSymbols
        .filter { it is KSClassDeclaration && it.validate() }
        .forEach { it.accept(XmlToComposeVisitor(generator, logger), Unit)  }

    composeToXmlSymbols
        .filter { it is KSFunctionDeclaration /*&& it.validate()*/ }
        .forEach { it.accept(ComposeToXmlVisitor(generator, path), Unit) }

    return unProcessed
}

`

It throws an nullPointerException as soon as it hits the validate calls:

The ViewProcessor in this stacktrace is the name of my symbolProcessor. I tried multiple things to fix it but nothing seemed to work. I did try commenting out the validate calls so that i can at least check if the rest of my processor works but then I ran in the next issue. When i run it with it the validate calls commented out it seems not to recognise any annotations i made except when i run it with the debugger attached, then everything seems to run fine.

As an example i had this property:
@ColorRes @IgnoreCompose var hideIconTintColorRes = R.color.tpa_amount_view_default_hide_icon_tint_color

Where ColorRes is normal androidx.annotation and IgnoreCompose is an annotation of my own:
@Target(PROPERTY, PROPERTY_SETTER, PROPERTY_GETTER) annotation class IgnoreCompose

But when i run my code normally (without debugger attached) it seems to throw an error, which i found out after adding this logger to my snippet:

private fun getPublicProperties(classDeclaration: KSClassDeclaration) = classDeclaration
        .getAllProperties().filter { it: KSPropertyDeclaration ->
            val name = it.simpleName.getShortName()
            val annoations = it.annotations.toList().joinToString("-") {
                it.shortName.asString()
            }
            val public = it.isPublic()
            val deprecated = it.isAnnotationPresent(Deprecated::class)
            val shouldIgnore = it.isAnnotationPresent(IgnoreCompose::class)
            val exposeParameter = public && !deprecated && !shouldIgnore
            logger.warn("-----$name-----")
            logger.warn("annotations: $annoations")
            logger.warn("exposeParameter: $exposeParameter")
            exposeParameter
        }.map { it: KSPropertyDeclaration ->
            Parameter(it.simpleName.getShortName(), it.type.toTypeName())
        }.toList()

where the output was the following:

w: [ksp] -----hideIconTintColorRes-----
w: [ksp] annotations: <error>-ColorRes
w: [ksp] exposeParameter: true

So it does seem to see the ColorRes annotation but something happend to my own. Again this works fine in the previous version of KSP so I was wondering if this is a bug or if I am doing something wrong.

Let me know if there is any other information I have to supply and I'll respond as quickly as I can. In the mean time I'll just keep using ksp 1.9.21
