I have a Kotlin Multiplatform project that uses Kotlin/JS and Kotlin/JVM. Here's a short version of my build.gradle.kts

plugins {
  kotlin("multiplatform")
  application
}

application {
  mainClass.set("path.to.my.MainKt")
}

kotlin {
  js()
  jvm()
}

I'd like to use gradlew run to run the path.to.my.MainKt file, but the run task doesn't want to use the runtime classpath in jvmMain. How do I fix this problem?

you can't use Gradle's application with Kotllin multiplatform without withJava()

[ephemient]

if you use kotlin { jvm { withJava() } } then the application plugin should work, but you can't add Android platform (because it conflicts with Java)

[ephemient]

if that is an issue for you, you will have to create your own replacement for the application plugin, as I did in https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-50227
