I'm getting when applying the Kotlin Multiplatform plugin as well as the Android library plugin…

Could not create an instance of type org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.plugin.mpp.KotlinAndroidTarget.
> Could not generate a decorated class for type KotlinAndroidTarget.
   > com/android/build/gradle/api/BaseVariant

The error message doesn't help me at all, where should I look for to fix this?

is it possible to have a button that is pinned to the bottom of the screen (either via box alignment or Column arrangement) when the content is not scrollable, but switch to scrolling along witht he rest of the content when there is enough content to scroll?

I can’t pass a drawable id (R.drawable.image) as an INT for my painterResource(). When running in release mode I get the following crash:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Only VectorDrawables and rasterized asset types are supported ex. PNG, JPG

the image I pass as an INT is a PNG.

'capitalize(): String' is deprecated. Use replaceFirstChar instead

what is the thinking here?

replaceFirstChar { if (it.isLowerCase()) it.titlecase() else it.toString() }

is a lot clunkier

What is the whole Remote Compose about? https://github.com/androidx/androidx/tree/androidx-main/compose/remote

Is there a way to draw outside of a composables bounds? Or to render a nested composable on top of (higher z-Index) as a composable that has a different parent? e.g.

Box {
  Box { 
    Composable1() <-- render this "on top of" (higher zIndex) Composable2
  }
  Composable2()
}

How do I map a

StateFlow

to another

StateFlow

?

stateFlow.map { } as StateFlow<T>

throws a ClassCastException

what can I do if the

compileKotlin

Gradle task always hangs for 10+ minutes, and launches a Java process that takes up 100% CPU? This is for a small v1.8.10 project with ~10 Kotlin classes (Gradle 8.0.2) I’ve tried cleaning, rebooting, running with

--no-build-cache

,

--no-configuration-cache

,

kotlin.incremental=false

, `kotlin.caching.enabled=false`…

Hello, I am discovering the new

plugins

declaration. Applying below in the root Gradle file

plugins {
    id("com.android.application") version "7.2" apply false
    id("com.android.library") version "7.2" apply false
}

But I also need to apply

Gradle

plugin in

buildSrc

so I have this in there

implementation("com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.2.0")

but then IDE throws an exception

Error resolving plugin [id: ‘com.android.application’, version: ‘7.2.0’, apply: false]

> The request for this plugin could not be satisfied because the plugin is already on the classpath with an unknown version, so compatibility cannot be checked.

How do I have the same plugin works for the both places?

Has anyone been able to successfully use FlowRow and alignment? Seems like it's not possible to vertically center items in a flow row due to FlowRowScopeInstance being private.
