Why doesn't the JPA Model Generator handle my Kotlin classes? - spring-boot

Question

JPAMetaModelEntityProcessor doesn't generate metamodels for my Kotlin classes in my Spring Boot project, though it does work fine for Java classes.
I reproduced the issue starting from scratch with a simple Spring Boot initializer project.
Here's my pom.xml:

For this Java class
package com.example.demo;
import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.Id;
#Entity
public class JavaEntity {
private Long id;
public void setId(Long id) {
this.id = id;
}
#Id
public Long getId() {
return id;
}
}
the following metamodel is generated during the build:
package com.example.demo;
import javax.annotation.Generated;
import javax.persistence.metamodel.SingularAttribute;
import javax.persistence.metamodel.StaticMetamodel;
#Generated(value = "org.hibernate.jpamodelgen.JPAMetaModelEntityProcessor")
#StaticMetamodel(JavaEntity.class)
public abstract class JavaEntity_ {
public static volatile SingularAttribute<JavaEntity, Long> id;
public static final String ID = "id";
}
but for example this Kotlin class
package com.example.demo
import javax.persistence.Entity
import javax.persistence.Id
#Entity
open class KotlinEntity {
#Id
var id: Long = TODO("initialize me")
}
seems to be simply ignored during the JPAMetaModelEntityProcessor execution.
Any idea how I can fix my project configuration?
