How to view definition of the expect function from standard-library? Example: ArrayT.sort(). I tried to find a way in the Intellij, but so far no luck :<

Each platform implement'sit differently. So try viewing it (Ctrl+B) from the platform you desire to see its implementation

@andylamax it only shows the usages of it, not the actual declaration. And by the way I'm only having a JVM project not a multiplatform.

@andylamax check this out

Works for me. Maybe IDE?

[Animesh Sahu]

What is your version of IDE? I'm using 2020.2

Usin AS 4.1 Canary 8

@andylamax Actually arrayOf(1).sort() is letting me go into JVM implementation, while if you do sth like listOf(1).sorted() and inside declaration of sorted navigate to sort() call there it brings me to Common code (expect one) and even if with Ctrl+B I'm not able to go to actual implemenation.

[Animesh Sahu]

Is this same case for you?

[andylamax]

listOf(1).sorted() Took me to common but again because this is a common implementation. wasn't implemented on a expect/actual basis

Ohh, thanks for clearing the doubt 🙂
