When might I expect SKIE to be updated to support the latest version of Kotlin (2.0.20)? I upgraded to the latest version of macos and now Xcode 15.4 isn't supported. When using Xcode 16 or 16.1, cinterop issues cause a failure with sys/cdefs.h. I tried updating my Kotlin version, but SKIE says it isn't supported. Any way I can SKIE continue even if it isn't officially supported? I want to continue using SKIE, not disable it. My issue: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-70566/LLVM-11-clang-with-Xcode-16-headers-sys-cdefs.h-file-not-found

Hi, please try SKIE 0.9.0-RC.5

[Tadeas Kriz]

It supports Kotlin 2.0.20 and we’ll be releasing full 0.9.0 soon

Also, you can run Xcode 15 on Sequoia from the terminal or via the GUI if you run the embedded executable directly instead of the app bundle (see StackOverflow)

I see that JetBrains guys suggest using Kotlin 2.0.21 or 2.1.0-Beta1 to fix this issue, but SKIE doesn’t support none of them, does it?

[Tadeas Kriz]

I don't see Kotlin 2.0.21 release

[Vita Sokolova]

My bad, it will be “fixed in 2.0.21”

[Tadeas Kriz]

I see, once it's out we'll make sure to get a SKIE version out for it.

[Tadeas Kriz]

We don't usually support Beta versions of Kotlin but I'll take a look if we might just this once

[Tadeas Kriz]

Actually, @Vita Sokolova could you give it a quick try by adding:

skie.kgpVersion=2.0.20

to your gradle.properties file and trying with Kotlin 2.1.0 beta?

[Tadeas Kriz]

It probably won't work, but I don't have a setup ready to give it a try

Ah, sorry, I’m not yet sure that I’m the one suffering from that issue. My iOS team said that in xcode16 their previews crash, but they can’t find any logs. Meanwhile I decided to check if someone has any issues with xcode16 I ran into that issue in JB tracker and this thread.

Also someone mentioned that “The preview is working if the Kotlin Framework is set as Dynamic and not Static.“, so we also trying to look into this.

I’m currently updating my macOS to be able to see what is the issue.
