:wave: Hi everyone!
I implemented a <https://github.com/CoroDesk/DemoK2CompilerPlugin|basic Kotlin compiler plugin> using K2 that checks class instantiations and prints a warning on the build output log if a class of type `com.names.inspector.Dog` is defined with a name ending in a specific suffix.

The attached images illustrate its behavior.

The plugin works correctly on JVM but fails with iOS targets.

When running the task `compileKotlinIosArm64`, it fails with an error `java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/names/inspector/Dog` indicating that a class defined in a `commonMain` sourceSet is not recognized properly, even though it is exported correctly for each iOS target.

Could you please help me understand why this plugin fails for iOS targets?

For native targets you need to shadow everything (but the compiler and stdlib). You can just use a single artifact with everything shadowed, it works fine for the non native compiler.
