onExternalDrag() has been deprecated and doesn't even compile anymore.

The sample at https://www.jetbrains.com/help/kotlin-multiplatform-dev/compose-drag-drop.html#creating-a-drop-target seems already be outdated, because for me it does not compile.

Is there a working sample (for the current CMP version) how I can drag & drop files from the system into my application window?

Seems to be an Kotlin 2.1.0 issue, which is not really compatible with CMP 1.7.1

Not sure I understand what you’re asking about.

[Alexander Maryanovsky]

The example seems to work for me with

kotlin.version=2.1.0
compose.version=1.7.1

With Kotlin 2.1.0 it does not work for me. 🤷‍♂️
The DragAndDropEvent has no fields as shown in the screenshot.

With Kotlin 2.0.21 it works and the imports are suggested.

[Alexander Maryanovsky]

Maybe a problem with the IDE? What if you add the import manually?

[Stefan Oltmann]

I am on IDEA ultimate 2024.2.5 as 2024.3.x does not work properly on Mac M1

[Stefan Oltmann]

I did not try to add the import manually because I rely on IDEA suggestions here.

The sample could need the imports added btw.
