Hi,

We have a client library that uses kotlinx serialization, and of course the gradle plugin: kotlin("plugin.serialization") version "1.x.x" . But, is it usable in an application of Kotlin 2.x with kotlin("plugin.serialization") version "2.x.x" ?

The Http client used there is a Java's client, so that's not a problem.

You should use the Kotlin version for the plugin and the latest library version 1.9.0.

[Leo N]

So, latest kotlinx version in both cases, but plugin can be 1.9.x and 2.1.x for example?

[Michael Paus]

As far as I know the plugin is bound to the Kotlin version. I am using 2.2.0.

[versions]
kotlin               = "2.2.0"
kotlinxSerialization = "1.9.0"

kotlinx-serialization-core      = { module = "org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-serialization-core", version.ref = "kotlinxSerialization" }
kotlinx-serialization-cbor      = { module = "org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-serialization-cbor", version.ref = "kotlinxSerialization" }
kotlinx-serialization-json      = { module = "org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-serialization-json", version.ref = "kotlinxSerialization" }
kotlinx-serialization-json-okio = { module = "org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-serialization-json-okio", version.ref = "kotlinxSerialization" }
