how can i get
compose.version=1.6.0-dev1340
kotlin.version=1.9.21
from gradle.properties at runtime to show the user?
or maybe get them from build.gradle.kts?
both ok, just how do i do that?

You can use
https://github.com/gmazzo/gradle-buildconfig-plugin
Or
https://github.com/yshrsmz/BuildKonfig

yeah i use com.github.gmazzo.buildconfig
but thats not the issue. what is the name of those vars?

[Zoff]

how do i get the versions used to compile the app

[Pablichjenkov]

The plugin allows you to get the version from gradle and place it in an object class. At runtime read the values from that object. Unless I am missing something in your question

[Zoff]

i know. but what exactly is the variable's name in gradle for the compose version? i don't know

[Zoff]

[Zoff]

i found what the name for the kotlin version is. but what is the name for the compose version?

[Pablichjenkov]

You access the properties in gradle.properties by using its exact name. For instance: project.findProperty("compose.version")
That's is the name you gave it in your gradle.properties file

ahh thanks. that was the missing peace of the puzzle
