tldr: as far as i understand i should be able to use kotlin.collections.jointostring inside of the shared code (android/ios), as it is part of common since kotlin 1.2

i tried to put function extension in a util file inside the shared folder in the project.
function:

fun ByteArray.toHex(): String =
        joinToString(separator = "") { eachByte -> "%02x".format(eachByte) }

which works inside the mainactivity
now if i create a extension function inside the new file and import it within mainactivity

fun <ByteArray> ByteArray.toHex(): String{
    return this.toString()
}
--
and in main activity
com.package.utils.*

it will be recognized as extended function, but i cannot get shared class to recoginz joinToString
kotlin- std-lib 1.70 both android and shared(common) class are using it

joinToString is usable from common, but format is not. If you're having trouble resolving joinToString it's probably because the type inference is getting confused after it fails to resolve format.
