Hi All, how can I define a top-level typealias that can be used by other classes and functions from various packages? For instance I want

typealias Dict<V> = Map<String, V>

to be made available to other classes

liminal: Just declare it at top level in any

.kt

file

So I cannot re-use this typealias definition in my project? Ideally it would be defined in one place and used whenever I need to use it within my project.

com/test/SomeFile.kt

typealias Dict<V> = Map<String, V> // this line can be in any file

data class ClassA(val d: Dict<String>)

com/test/subpackage/SomeOtherFile.kt

import com.test.Dict

data class ClassB(val d: Dict<String>)

great. i had wrong syntax trying to import it before. thanks!

don't code in Notepad 😄 code in IntelliJ
