How can one add static methods to Java classes in Kotlin

by

As of Kotlin 1.3, this is not possible. However, it’s being considered for a future release!

To help this feature get implemented, go vote on this issue: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-11968

Because all proposals are basically in limbo right now, I wouldn’t hold my breath that this will get in any time soon
