Hey! I am using ktor ios engine to make get requests. However, making get requests using client.get<String>(url) results in cinterop error as the native compiler treats get as cinterop function instead of the ktor function. Is there a way to force the compiler? Also, with multithreading not supported in native coroutines, I wonder if there is a way to avoid ui freezing while calking client.

anyone used K/N with CocoaPods? Wondering if theres a way to have a

.podspec

reference the generated

.framework

file K/N outputs

What architectures does K/N currently support? A year ago I planned on converting a Cortex M library to use Kotlin but the toolset wasn't quite mature enough, especially with Gradle.

In Kotlin/Native 0.9,

platform.windows.WCHAR

is now a

UShort

but String.wcstr still creates an array of

Short

. So

"foo".wcstr.ptr

is no longer an

LPCWSTR

. Is this a bug?

Another thing with unsigned types – cinterop now generates a mix of Int and UInt constants:

...
const val WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW: Int = 13565952
const val WS_POPUP: UInt = -2147483648.toUInt()
...

...which is a bit cumbersome to use. Is there a good way to pass a list of arguments to a function where each argument can be either Int or UInt? Or can cinterop be improved for these cases?

can I have runBlocking in kotlin-platform-common module ?

Wen compiling a large library, I am getting this error:

error: compilation failed: No active scope

How to properly create bindings for a library that depends on another one? Say I want to create bindings for a library “foo” with a single header foo.h, which in turn includes bar/bar.h. Do I have to tell cinterop where to find all required headers? Or do I have to compile them one by one?

Looks like

org.jetbrains.kotlin.konan

does not recognize the new gradle dsl. Is it only

org.jetbrains.kotlin.platform.native

at this point that does?

Also, under the new dsl, when working with cinterop, is

defFile project.file("deffile.def")

suppose to default to

src/main/c_interop/deffile.def

? Currently its referencing the project root folder,

project_root/deffile.def

.

I am missing the dSym-file when compiling ios-frameworks and building from gradle. When building from AppCode the dSym-file is there. Anyone that have some insight here?

Just a quick confirmation, does the CLion plugin support 0.9?

I know the new DSL is in experimental status but curious if future updates will have the gradle plugin automatically move kexe files to the target directory or will we always need to do copy tasks in our own scripts similar to https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-mpp-example/blob/master/greeting/ios/build.gradle#L18 ? This question only applies when targeting iOS with outputKinds of FRAMEWORK or EXECUTABLE.

With the interop with objc, I see the import of platform.Foundation. I can import any other objc library ? Will be nice make some common wrapper and then use one native library in ios or other in jvm.

Is it possible to get build time of kotlin native library (framework), by calling library method? E.g. I have kotlin library and method getBuildTime(), which will return time when library was built. If I rebuild framework, it will give different time.

What would be a good kotlin replacement for Jackson? We want to compile our data library to Swift and need to get rid of all Java-based dependencies

Is it possible to use generic types in iOS app returned from Common module function?

my plan right now is to use

lipo

to do this manually after generating all the required architectures but would be nice as a potential output format for K/N

i wish there was more documentation on kotlin native. apart from a simple hello world, im not sure what i can do. ;/

Hello. Question about macro resolving. (see thread)

The kotlin files are being supplied to our project through cocoapods, and our podfiles are identical.

If I have List<Int> and there will be no nulls inside it, is there way that interface in framework will be [NSNumber]?

is it possible to run kotlin native on esp8266?

hey guys, can u link me to stuff you need for background knowledge to effectively program for kotlin native?

Is there any place I can learn how to use

depends

directive of

.def

file? I was skimming through the repo but didn't find any usage outside of default platform libs generation. Reasoning for the question: I'm trying to consume from Kotlin/Native two C libraries which depend on each other. Bindings for the first one are generated trivially, but I'm unable to inform

cinterop

that for types and functions from the first library there should be imports with first lib wrapper's namespace instead of duplicated bridges.

JVM Kotlin has nice converting tool from Java to Kotlin. Do you have any plans for similar tools for ObjC, C, C++ to K/N? 🙂

I have a problem with memory deallocation from objective c with my kotlin/native framework. When a class from the kotlin/native framework is deallocated with ARC, I get a crash in

FreeContainer(ContainerHeader* header)

, probably from this file https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-native/blob/master/runtime/src/main/cpp/Memory.cpp . Has anyone seen this before? Any suggestions on how to debug this?

Are Kotlin objects always allocated on heap?
