Hi everyone, I have a question regarding Kotlin vs Objc/Swift static properties. Kotlin doesn’t have any explicit support of static functions. Instead, we use companion objects. Following example is often used in factory classes.

class MyClass {
  ...
  companion object {
    fun companionFun()
  }
}

When we generate ObjC code out of this example it creates one interface for

MyClass

and another one for

MyClass.Companion

. Then, in Swift we use it as

MyClass.companion.companionFun()

. The issue is

companion

nor

companionFun

aren’t static because

companion

is a singleton object. Is there a way how to generate Swift static functions for Kotlin functions without the need of second interface? I found one feature ticket which would potentially solve this issue but it is without any activity for a long time. https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-44862
