> **Description**
> Currently, if we miss the @**Reflect** annotation on methods called from kernel functions, no method is generated for them in the corresponding backend. This causes an error like:
>
> `> error: implicit declaration of function 'squareitWithoutReflectAnnotation' is invalid...
> `
> **Solution**
> - Throw error if Reflect annotation is missing on all methods called from the kernel function that are defined in the same class as the kernel function.
>
> **Test**
> - A new test is added at **hat.test.TestMissingReflectAnnotation#testTransitiveMethodFromKernelWithoutReflectAnnotation**
