I just tried updating, but I cant get ResourceA.releaseCase working...

This snippet was working before in 1.2.4
I saw Resource.kt was more or less completely rewritten but from the signatures I see no reason why this should not work.
Nevertheless the IDE claims it doesn't know resourceCase 😕

You need to be inside a ResourceScope to use that extension, so surround your code with resourceScope. Even better, just use install or onRelease or any of the other simpler methods

Ahh .. I see!
we have some similar situation as in the example from the docs: https://arrow-kt.io/learn/coroutines/resource-safety/#using-resource

So I fixed it by moving the release block inside the resource block and used onRelease:

resource {
	onRelease { _, _ -> 

    }
}
