Anyone playing with kotlin-multiplatform and this library: com.russhwolf:multiplatform-settings ?

In my project which I have just created:
IntelliJ 2020.3 > File > New > Project… > Kotlin > Mobile Application
I have added a dependency:

val commonMain by getting {
   dependencies {
       implementation("com.russhwolf:multiplatform-settings:0.6.1")
   }
}

Inside iosMain I have added this code:

fun test(d: NSUserDefaults) {
    AppleSettings(d)
}

And everything compiles correctly but IDE complains about AppleSettings that (Cannot access class ‘platform.Foundation.NSUserDefaults’. Check your module classpath for missing or conflicting dependencies) [see image below]

any ideas what could be the reason of this error?

It happens because Multiplatform Settings uses a bunch of intermediate source-sets internally and IDE support is still incomplete there. Things will work better if you use specific targets like iosX64() and iosArm64() rather than ios() in your gradle configuration.

That indeed works, thanks a lot!
