kotlinlang

I have a question about Gradle with multiplatform kotlin projects. I have a project where 99% of the code is in `common`, and then there is some glue code in `jvm`, `js` and `linux` that allows me to target these platforms. I also have a separate project that links to it in order to provide an Android UI. Now, I recently added some code to the `jvm` part of the project that doesn't compile on Android (it uses some Java 21 API's). Is there a way to separate out the non-Android code so that the Android build doesn't try to compile it?

yes, add an a`ndroid` target in your `build.gradle.kts`

<@ULERY2F70> thanks a lot for your reply. I still have one question: There are a lot of `actual` implementations in the `jvm` package that I want to use from the `android` one. Is there a different target I can use that is shared between `jvm` and `android`?

You can add an intermediate sourceSet (lets call it jvmAndAndroid), all those code can live in there and the unique ones can live inside their platform specific sourceSet

<@ULERY2F70> I see, thanks. I'll try this.
