# multiplatform

[Tadeas Kriz]

Hey everyone! Yesterday we released a 2.0 version of xcode-kotlin, the Xcode plugin which brings debugging of Kotlin Multiplatform code to Xcode. It's a big improvement compared to our previous version, so make sure to update to get all the goodies.

What's new:
🤯 Vastly improved debugging performance (~5x faster).
💯 Shows more information for each frame variable (see attached screenshots).
😱 Works both in Swift and Kotlin code.
🤩 Built-in support for List and Map with more coming (e.g. StateFlow, Set)

I've written more details about the improvements: https://touchlab.co/xcode-kotlin-2-0

@Tadeas Kriz can you show demo in project because I try not working like (Video screen)

[Tadeas Kriz]

Could you share what's not working?

[hafiz]

I couldn't share as this is my code company

[Tadeas Kriz]

There's not much I can share, did you follow the installation instructions? Is the kotlin code you've added to Xcode higlighted?

[hafiz]

Yup, by the way instruction does not show how to do run debuging in xcode.

[Tadeas Kriz]

If the kotlin code in Xcode is highlighted, put a breakpoint in the code and hit "Run"

[Tadeas Kriz]

Considering this image from the post, you put a breakpoint on a line (in the image it's line 13) and then hit the "Play" button on the top in Xcode window

[Tadeas Kriz]

If something's not working for you, I'll need to you to share some details about it so I can try and reproduce the issue

[hafiz]

@Tadeas Kriz the break point must have or beloging to package iosMain instead of composeApp

[hafiz]

because in my case most of my code 80% from composeApp package and crash was happen in package composeApp

[Tadeas Kriz]

It's possible Compose compiler changes the code that the debugger can't match it. I haven't tried xcode-kotlin with Compose Multiplatform yet

[hafiz]

let say I put break point as following screen, then I just need to open folder iosApp package folder in xcode then wait until it stop at that point or ?

[hafiz]

xcode-kotlin with Compose Multiplatform
Answer: No wonder I feel like it never stop. This library should be work on package composeApp (commonMain) instead of iosMain but it is not stop there.

[Tadeas Kriz]

Can you add the following function above the fun Content(), put breakpoint into it and call it from the code?

fun xcodeKotlinBreakpointTest() {
  println("Put a breakpoint here please")
}

[Tadeas Kriz]

And let me know if the debugger doesn't stop but you see "Put a breakpoint here please" in the console, or if it stops there

[Tadeas Kriz]

I just verified it stops in @Composable functions too
