Hi,

I am iOS dev and new to Multiplatform.
I am trying to create Service layer (http requests, models and business logic) in common code which can be used between iOS and Android. I am using IntelliJ IDE.
To make http call I am using ktor(I have installed ktor plugin). Unfortunately, I am getting very basic errors and not able to proceed further. Any help would be great.

Error:
Unresolved reference: io

Gradle:
sourceSets {
commonMain {
dependencies {
implementation kotlin(‘stdlib-common’)
implementation “io.ktorktor client1.0.0”
implementation “org.jetbrains.kotlinxkotlinx coroutines core common1.0.1"
}
}
}

A couple of things.

1. If you want to build to both Android and IOS you’ll need to register them as targets in your gradle build and add the platform-specific versions of your dependencies into each of your targets.
2. I don’t think you can call suspend functions directly from Swift/ObjectiveC, so you may need to make a blocking version of getTodos() for the iOS version

Thanks for response. I have basic issues with import.

The most recent version of that package is 1.2.4. Try changing it to io.ktor:ktor-client-core:1.2.4

Thanks… will give a try.
