A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

In Kotlin/Native with Gradle, is there a way to read a resource file from native code similar to how it's done in JVM? I need a Kotlin/Native equivalent for the following JVM code:
```    val inputStream = object {}.javaClass.getResourceAsStream("/sample.txt")
    val content = inputStream.bufferedReader().use(BufferedReader::readText)```


I had exactly the same need, and I was told there is no such way. That said, you could always embed the data in an elf file, link it to an `.so` and then use cinterop to include it.

Nope.
I was met maybe not similar but close enough issues with resources so I've created few utilities by using the POSIX interop on linux/mac

This is the response i got from the team - <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-39194/Embedding-resources-to-Native-binaries#focus=Comments-27-9678507.0-0>

For a new small binary files , i convert it into base64 text and store it as raw string in kotlin source…it’s really painful to deal with embedded resources (which works on all native platforms) today.
