Hi all, I need help.

It seems I can't access the resources of src\jvmMain\resources\a.txt in jvmMain

kts:

plugins {
    alias(libs.plugins.kotlinMultiplatform)
    alias(libs.plugins.android.library)
//    id("module.publication")
}

kotlin {
    applyDefaultHierarchyTemplate()
    jvm()


    androidTarget {

        publishLibraryVariants("release")
        compilations.all {
            kotlinOptions {
                jvmTarget = "1.8"
            }
        }
    }

//    iosX64()
//    iosArm64()
//    iosSimulatorArm64()
//    linuxX64()

    sourceSets {

        commonMain.dependencies {


        }

        commonTest.dependencies {
            implementation(libs.kotlin.test)
        }

        androidMain.dependencies {
        }

        jvmMain {
            dependencies {
            }

        }


    }
}

android {
    namespace = "org.jetbrains.kotlinx.multiplatform.library.sevenZip"
    compileSdk = libs.versions.android.compileSdk.get().toInt()
    defaultConfig {
        minSdk = libs.versions.android.minSdk.get().toInt()
    }
}

sample:

val message =
            Thread.currentThread().contextClassLoader.getResource("a.txt")?.readText()
        println(message)

Can anyone tell me what's wrong here? and how to fix it? This code actually works on jvm project which is not inside multiplatform so I'm asking here.

The resource must reside in an intermediate source set if you want it available from both androidMain and jvmMain .

Something like jvmAndroidMain

Wait... I totally misread the problem.

Maybe prefix the resource path with / ?

Alternatively, try obtaining a class within your module and getting the resource stream from that.

SomeClassFromModuleWithADotTxt::class.java.getResourceAsStream("/a.txt")

I tried this too

val message =
    Thread.currentThread().contextClassLoader.getResource("/a.txt")?.readText()
println(message)

but apparently no luck.

another thing to mention is that I can access the resource when I run test in jvmMain.
