Hey everyone 👋

I am working on a pretty simple Compose multiplatform app with iOS support based off the template project. After updating to Compose 1.5.0 I cannot get past this pesky iOS issue. See 🧵

[Aaron Alaniz]

/Users/aaron/Development/compose-lightsaber/iosApp/iosApp/ContentView.swift:7:9: error: cannot find 'Main_iosKt' in scope
        Main_iosKt.MainViewController()
        ^~~~~~~~~~

[Aaron Alaniz]

The only two things I changed were updating to 1.5.0 and I moved the main.ios.kt to a different directory in the same module 😅

[Aaron Alaniz]

I tried running the cleanup.sh script, running ./gradlew shared:embedAndSignPodAppleFrameworkForXcode in Xcode, but nothing seems to make that main.ios.kt file visible in ContentView.swift 🤔

[Aaron Alaniz]

I tried moving the main.ios.kt file back where I had it, but I can't seem to break out of this broken state. My android app seems to work fine.

[Aaron Alaniz]

Thanks! 🙏

It seems your ios shared module isn't getting compiled.

[Aaron Alaniz]

And not available in the iosApp module.

[Aaron Alaniz]

This seems to run fine ./gradlew shared:compileKotlinIosSimulatorArm64

[Rafs]

I've had similar issues in the past where that command only takes about 4 seconds to run but actually does nothing

[Aaron Alaniz]

interesting, trying this now ./gradlew shared:iosSimulatorArm64Binaries

[Aaron Alaniz]

the task succeeds, but i still can't build the app 😓

[Rafs]

how long does it take

[Aaron Alaniz]

./gradlew shared:iosSimulatorArm64Binaries     
Configuration 'kspKotlinIosSimulatorArm64ProcessorClasspath' was resolved during configuration time.
This is a build performance and scalability issue.

Are you using cocoapods

[Aaron Alaniz]

yes

[Aaron Alaniz]

cocoapods {
        version = "1.0.0"
        summary = "a summary"
        homepage = "insert link"
        ios.deploymentTarget = "14.1"
        podfile = project.file("../iosApp/Podfile")
        framework {
            baseName = "shared"
            isStatic = true
        }
    }

[Rafs]

In your build folder do you see the build outputs

I do and there is the API i'm trying to call 😅

[Aaron Alaniz]

Okay so this ended up being the solution.

[Aaron Alaniz]

Basically, after opening the *.xcworkspace file I was able to build in xcode just fine

[Aaron Alaniz]

Wow SAME exact problem. Thank you so much @kpgalligan and @julioromano 🙏
