deleteWhere regression in 0.40.1

After upgrading to 0.40.1 the following code does not compile

TableA.deleteWhere { TableA.id eq myId }

Getting Unresolved reference: eq

It should become better after context receivers go public

You need to import this now for it to work

import org.jetbrains.exposed.sql.SqlExpressionBuilder.eq

Is this the suggested way? Regardless of the ISqlExpressionBuilder at the it parameter?

In my understanding, either the ISqlExpressionBuilder parameter is useless, or direct imports should not be used.

My current workaround:

Table.deleteWhere { with(it) { id inList ids } }

It’s kotlin’s limitation of now allowing two receivers in lambda blocks. In case of two parameters competing the receiver position, libraries should make trade-offs. The ISqlExpressionBuilder as a receiver can be seen as a “context”, although I don’t know the implementation detail, but it can differ according to different senarios such as different SQL dialects etc. While the Table as a receiver acts only as a syntax sugar.

If the ISqlExpressionBuilder parameter could not be removed, I believe the old way is much more reasonable, since the Table is defined by users, users know how to use it.

Table.deleteWhere { with(Table) { id inList ids } }
Table.deleteWhere { Table.id inList ids }
