Sweet

Why does it say jetfile 😛 I thought all references of jet got eliminated

Legacy is creeping in tunnels… 👻

r/jet/kotlin maybe? :3

(just kiddin)

What about using Kotlin Native to develop Linux application with Gnome for example. Did anybody try to generate Kotlin bindinds for GLib and see how fare it goes?

i tried GTK.h

after some mucking with it it died on an outofmemory issue

im guessing i could increase the Xmx in the shell wrapper but havent tried again

Ok thanks for your feedback, interested if you have updated info later

ah, yeah i think i just excluded that.. with full knowledge that i'd actually need g_object_connect to do anything useful

good find

So I thought I'd try XCB instead, but there seems to be some problem with structs, so that's not working either. 😫 @olonho Did you see the thing I pasted? Any hints? 1 reply yes, we see the problem and try to fix it soon.

@sdeleuze I also tried GTK. There was 1) a bug in cinterop: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-17321 2) more than 3 GB memory required (it worked for me with 10 GB), 3) some serialization limit (org.jetbrains.kotlin.protobuf.InvalidProtocolBufferException) when I tried to actually link a program with the resulting 330 MB gtk.kt.bc. 1 reply oh, cool, this is an interesting example of interop, we will work on lifting limits there

are there any plans to implement (some kind of) annotation processing for kotlin native?

I know it doesn't support it currently, but I was wondering if it's on the roadmap

Like macros?

except far far more powerful

I do not think annotation processing is currently being actively worked on by Kotlin/Native team, however, being generic compiler feature it could be implemented by Koltin frontend for all backends, including Native

I know there is kapt, but that's very java centric

oof, i think that'd require quite a bit of work, at least definitely the cpp where you've got all kinds of mangling, BC and interop to worry about

does rust even let you do that?

I think both Rust and Go can create C-compatible shared libs. I don’t know about C++

export "C"

? 🙂

ah, I remember that

good times
