Hello everyone. I am trying to change a variable in a singleton and the IDE displayed me the following message:

With old Native GC, variable in singleton without @ThreadLocal can't be changed after initialization

. Are there a new Native GC ????

I wanted to add shadow to a composable. Shadow should be only applied to the top. (Not required for left or right). Is there some way to achieve this. Code snippet I already tried,

Box(
  modifier = Modifier
    .background(Color.Yellow)
    .shadow(
      elevation = 2.dp,
    ),
) {
content()
}

Anyone have experience with using Mapbox with Kotlin Multiplatform?

Is there any chart library available for compose multiplatform?

Exceeded max line length (120) (cannot be auto-corrected) (max-line-length)

Why can't line length be auto-corrected? IntelliJ auto-corrects it just fine. Any alternative settings or different tools that can do better?

I'm getting crashes when running Kotlin Multiplatform iOS apps using new XCode 15 Beta + iOS 17 Simulator.....seems to be in Ktor code. I'll dig a bit deeper but just in case anyone else seeing same thing....

Hey I’m having issues mocking an extension property, how can one do it? Suppose I have

class MyService { … }

and an extension property like

val MyService.myProp: String
    get() = "value"

when doing

mockk<MyService> {
    every { myProp } returns "otherValue"
}

it throws a

MockkException

msg:

Missing mocked calls inside every { ... } block: make sure the object inside the block is a mock

How to correctly store a list in a mutablestate remember variable? I tried with

val imagesList by remember *{* _mutableStateListOf_<ImageModel>()*}*

but it gives this error

Type 'TypeVariable(T)' has no method 'getValue(Nothing?, KProperty<*>)' and thus it cannot serve as a delegate

If I replace

by remember

with

= remember

the error dissapears and I dont understand why. Also, the guides says

by remember

is the correct option so I whould like to understand how to be able to use

by remember

with this list. Another problem I found is that even using

=

instead of

by

, I'm not able to init the variable with a list.

remember *{* _mutableStateListOf_<ImageModel>(ImageModelProvider.imageModelList)*}*

gives this error:

Type mismatch. Required: ImageModel Found:List<ImageModel>

easiest way to cast a mutable list into a list?

Using the new

BasicTextField2

API, when listening to its changes through its

textAsFlow()

, is there a way to know if a text was added programmatically through

edit {}

vs. manually from a user? I'm thinking something like this, but due to the asynchronous nature of it all, that doesn't quite cut it:

val textFieldState = TextFieldState("")
var isSettingProgrammatically = false

launch {
  textFieldState.textAsFlow()
    .dropWhile { isSettingProgrammatically }
    .collect { println("change: $it") }
}

launch {
  delay(2.seconds)

  isSettingProgrammatically = true
  textFieldState.edit { replace(0, length, "value" }
  isSettingProgrammatically = false
}

where the

"value"

from the second

launch

should not be printed from the text flow collection.
