:compose: :desktop_computer: Does anyone has experience with *Compose for Desktop* and using a *native c library*?
I was able to load the native library desktop
```val resources = File(System.getProperty("compose.application.resources.dir")).parent
System.load(File(resources, "libutil.dylib").absolutePath)```
But I don’t know how I can access it.

<@UGXK0Q70A> loading the `.dylib` isn’t an issue. But I don’t know, how to access it via an JNI or c-interop call from inside kotlin.

Same as you would in Java, via JNI.  In fact, you can write your JNI code in Java and just call it from Kotlin.  See <https://kotlinlang.org/docs/java-interop.html#using-jni-with-kotlin>

You can also write K/N code that calls into the library and a Kotlin object to call into your K/N like in <https://github.com/LandryNorris/JniUtils|https://github.com/LandryNorris/JniUtils> sample module.

ah sure, I had to add `JNIEXPORT` and `JNICALL` to the library to get access from outside.:tada:
