👋 with 1.13.0-alpha01, the dependency compose.desktop.currentOs is deprecated and says it's no longer needed and can simply be removed. But if I do that, androidx.compose.ui.window.* imports are no longer found.

I suppose another dependency is needed instead? [Looks like the KMP wizard/template still uses that dependency]

[bod]

Ah looks like it's org.jetbrains.compose.desktop:desktop-jvm

All good ✅

Do you have org.jetbrains.compose.ui:ui explicitly added as a dependency anywhere for desktop/common?

The org.jetbrains.compose.desktop:desktop-jvm module doesn't contain anything special by itself. If you look at it, it's mostly a collection of deprecated declarations. What it does however, is transitively pull in other Compose modules such as Compose UI.

There should be no need for a desktop-specific dependency anymore. Instead, you can declare the required Compose dependencies explicitly just as you would for other targets

[bod]

But in which dependency is androidx.compose.ui.window.*? That's Desktop specific, right?

[bod]

(my desktop module depends on my shared module, which depends on org.jetbrains.compose.ui:ui, but as implementation, not as api)

[bod]

indeed removing org.jetbrains.compose.desktop:desktop-jvm and making the ui one as api worked. Not sure I understand why though 😅

[bod]

ah window is in org.jetbrains.compose.ui:ui-desktop . Ok makes sense ✅ Thanks!

You can just add org.jetbrains.compose.ui:ui with implementation as a replacement of currentOs then. I believe this is what webApp from KMP wizard has for web target which also needs androidx.compose.ui.window.*

[bod]

indeed I see I have it on my browser target (and I did use the wizard for this project) 👍
