Hi everyone.
My goal is to be able to share flows in IOS app from a base shared viewmodel
The issue stems from expect actual modifiers
I am following this article. When I define

commonMain

import kotlinx.coroutines.flow.Flow

expect class CommonFlow<T>(flow: Flow<T>): Flow<T>

androidMain

actual class CommonFlow<T> actual constructor(
    private val flow: Flow<T>,
) : Flow<T> by flow

I get a compile-time error:

Actual constructor of 'CommonFlow' has no corresponding expected declaration The following declaration is incompatible because parameter types are different:
public constructor CommonFlow<T>(flow: Flow<T>) defined in com.example.quickpark.util.flows.CommonFlow

Any ideas 🤷 ?

Answer:
Kotlin by delegate works only with interfaces. And of course kotlinx.coroutines.flow.Flow is an interface. Problem stems from actual CommonFlow implementation I got because by accident I imported java.util.concurrent.Flow which is a class and definitely something I had no intention on using think smart
