# multiplatform

I want to add protobuf to my kotlin multiplatform project that contain "Android and Desktop" so it's JVM only
the plugin by default compiles protobuf source from "src/main/proto" rather than "src/commonMain/proto"
Do you know how to fix that issue ?

Probably not entirely helpful for you, as it will not answer your question directly.

But, I’m using protobuf files on a project that I’m working on. The project supports Android and iOS.
We have the protos under src/commonMain/proto and we’re using squareup/Wire for the protobuf generation.

Soo, I played around quite a bit with the protobuf generation dependant on JVM and got quite disappointed at the capabilities of it on a shared codebase 😕 So I would strongly suggest not using a JVM solution.

To answer your question, you probably just need to specify a different source, lookup srcDir under https://github.com/google/protobuf-gradle-plugin

It works for me with squareup-wire plugin
Thank you so much
