How to use Dagger's 2 @Named qualifier in Kotlin

Recently I had a problem with @Named qualifier in Kotlin. I thought that changing from this:

var boldTypeface: Typeface? = null
[Inject] set

into this

var boldTypeface: Typeface? = null
[Inject Named("bold")] set

or

var boldTypeface: Typeface? = null
[Inject] [Named("bold")] set

would solve my problem. But it didn't, it's not even compiling.

I had to update my answer since Kotlin improved a lot. Right now I am using Kotlin 1.0 beta 3

To properly set multiple annotations for a property you have to use @field annotation:

@field:[Inject Named("bold")]
lateinit var boldTypeface: Typeface

Note that I am using lateinit here so there is no need to use nullable type Typeface?
