How do you guys handle errors in KMM? For example, I have this use case

interface SignInUseCase {
    @Throws(Exception::class)
    suspend fun execute(email: String, password: String): Whatever
}

When I call this from iOS, I get

signInUseCase.execute(email: email, password: password) { whatever, error in
    // Handle completion
}

Is there a way to have a custom error here, instead of NSError? Ideally, I'd like to have maybe a class or data class

data class Error(
    val title: String
    val detail: String
}

w: Kotlin Multiplatform <-> Android Gradle Plugin compatibility issue:
The applied Android Gradle Plugin version (8.3.0) is higher 
than the maximum known to the Kotlin Gradle Plugin.
Tooling stability in such configuration isn't tested, please report encountered issues to <https://kotl.in/issue>"

Minimum supported Android Gradle Plugin version: 7.0
Maximum tested Android Gradle Plugin version: 8.2

To suppress this message add 'kotlin.mpp.androidGradlePluginCompatibility.nowarn=true' to your gradle.properties

Really, how can it be that Kotlin plugin is not supporting version of AGP that is 8.3? I am using Kotlin 1.9.23, Gradle 8.6, AGP 8.3, Java 17.

Does multiplatform library have the access to run background tasks for android and iOS? Sample use case is to monitor their location even app is in the background. Thanks in advance!

Does okhttp have a way of limiting the maximum number of connections used? I see ConnectionPool allows configuring

maxIdleConnections

but says nothing of maximum total connections allowed to be created/active. I also am not seeing an equivalent of a

connectAcquireTimeout

...

How to call rest API using kotlin multiplatform desktop app? Any one have Github demo?

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()
}

Hi everyone, what is the difference channel

receiveAsFlow

vs

consumeAsFlow

?

receiveAsFlow

can have multiple collectors and

consumeAsFlow

only 1?

How can I align Text and content of OutlinedTextField to CenterVertically?

Hello, i'm trying to mock Instant but I can't seem to get it to work. My approach:

object MockkInstant {
    var value: Instant = Instant.now()

    fun mock() {
        mockkStatic(Instant::class)

        every {
            Instant.now()
        } answers {
            value.minusMillis(0) // line 22 from stack trace below
        }
    }

    fun clear() {
        clearStaticMockk(Instant::class)
    }

    fun step(duration: Duration = 1.seconds) {
        value = value.add(duration) // extension function defined elsewhere
    }
}

Now in my tests i'm trying to do this:

"fixes calls to Instant.now()" {
    val a = Instant.now()
    delay(1)
    val b = Instant.now()
    a.shouldBe(b)
}

But I'm getting an error from the

I've seen other people using returns, but afaik that returns the same Instant object whereas I want to create a new one each time Instant.now() is called. Any suggestions?
