is there a way to skip the expect/actual for one platform. Say I have an expected class but only actual implementaion for android and web, and want to skip the jvm implementation for that specific class

What do you expect to happen when that code is called on the JVM?

I'd have same models for jvm defined in the backend module itself

You can define a source set that's shared between only web and android, and put your expect declaration there. Or you can use an interface instead of expect class. Optional expectation won't help you because it can only be used for annotations.

got any example use oof optional expectation? I did get your last sentence: " it can only be used for annotations"

If you do

@OptionalExpectation expect annotation class Foo

then you don't need to do

actual annotation class Foo

for every platform. But you can't do

@OptionalExpection expect class Foo

if

Foo

is not an

annotation class

so it's not for type of class?

It's only for

annotation class

thanks
