Thanks for sharing this, by any chance, do you have any specific steps to compile/run the project on Arm64 simulator? 🙏🏻

[kpgalligan]

I do not. Possibly @Tadeas Kriz?

[kpgalligan]

(My main machine is still an Intel 😞 )

[Tadeas Kriz]

There was one library that didn't have the arm64 simulator target published yet. You can either run it on an iOS device (it compiles on arm64 machine), or switch the simulator to run in Rosetta mode. I'll check if the library has the target published or not and let you know 🙂

[Alejandro Rios]

or switch the simulator to run in Rosetta mode.

hmmm, gonna try, thanks 🙂
btw: I left a comment in this issue, could be related

[Tadeas Kriz]

Before you do that, I'm checking our codebase to see if we have support for it. We might've already added it and failed to check if it works 🙂

I need to submit a PR (or at least an issue) to https://github.com/qdsfdhvh/compose-imageloader to include the target.

[Tadeas Kriz]

Sent a PR to compose-imageloader, once merged I'll update the Droidcon codebase to support arm64 simulator. Thanks for bringing it up!

[Tadeas Kriz]

Great news! They merged it and released a new version, so I'll update the Droidcon codebase tomorrow

[Tadeas Kriz]

@Alejandro Rios Updated code in the main branch.

[Alejandro Rios]

Thank you very much

But now I'm getting this error: 😖

> Task :shared-ui:compileCommonMainKotlinMetadata FAILED
e: java.lang.IllegalStateException: e: Could not find "/Users/alejandrorios/Documents/Workstation/Kotlin-Native/DroidconKotlin/shared-ui/build/kotlinSourceSetMetadata/commonMain/org.jetbrains.kotlinx-atomicfu/org.jetbrains.kotlinx-atomicfu-nativeInterop.klib" in [/Users/alejandrorios/Library/Application Support/kotlin/daemon]

[Tadeas Kriz]

That's weird, try cleaning and running it again

[Tadeas Kriz]

Are you running build from Xcode?

[Alejandro Rios]

nop, I'm running ./gradlew build from Intellij

[Tadeas Kriz]

I haven't tried that, so it might be failing. I always run the project from Xcode (when I want it to run on simulator) or from IntelliJ running to Android device

[Alejandro Rios]

I'm following the IOSDEV README instructions, I guess that I need to do that in order to run the app in a simulator, right?

[Rick Clephas]

The issue with the compileCommonMainKotlinMetadata might be related to incompatible versions of Kotlin (hierarchical project structure). I had a somewhat similar issue with the ./gradlew build command. Once I updated the dependencies to match the Kotlin version in the project, those errors disappeared.

[Tadeas Kriz]

Shoot, I'm sorry those instructions are old and I forgot to update them 😕

[Alejandro Rios]

@Tadeas Kriz please let me know once you update that Readme to run the iOS version of the app

[Stefan Oltmann]

Thats wonderful news and I hope one day Touchlab or JetBrains will bring this as a production ready framework. I would love getting rid of SwiftUI. 🙂
