So I posted this in #general yesterday, but maybe here would be a good idea as well. I am struggling with dependencies in a multi-project, multi-platform (JS and JVM) working with intellij correctly.

I have an example repo here: https://github.com/adamsar/kotlin-dependency-bug

Basically I would like konform to be usable in common/commonMain. What I have right now will build if I include the enableFeaturePreview("GRADLE_METADATA") in settings.gradle but will not be detected by intellij. If I do not include it, I can not build.

Apologies for the spam for those watching the other channel as well.

Sounds pretty strange as Gradle Module Metadata evolved from preview in 6.0 afair, so that shouldn't make a difference. 😕

[Andrew Adams]

Yeah it's pretty weird. I am using gradle 6.7, and the compilation phase that fails is "compileKotlinMetadata", which I have very little knowledge about

[Vampire]

In the sample project you are using 6.6, not 6.7

[Andrew Adams]

Ah, I was running ./gradlew --version and it gives me 6.7

[Vampire]

o_O

[Vampire]

Oh, my fault, sorry, you are right.

[Vampire]

Probably confused it with something else

[Andrew Adams]

I feel like this is just a very silly misconfigured something on my part

[Andrew Adams]

For the time being I am going to try to find a similar open project on Github (multi-platform, multi-project) and see if it works on my box.

[Vampire]

If I clone your project and execute build task, it fails

[Andrew Adams]

On the metadata part?

[Vampire]

yes

[Andrew Adams]

Ok, then I guess I will have to do some deeper reading on multiplatform metadata stuff

[Andrew Adams]

Thanks.

[Vampire]

I thought you said with the preview feature enabled it does not fail

[Andrew Adams]

Sorry it was just inside intellij for that.

[Andrew Adams]

Thanks for your help

[Vampire]

yw, didn't do much

[Andrew Adams]

OK, after building a few other projects on Github, I believe this is simply an error with the publishing of the konform library to maven.

[Andrew Adams]

When I include any well maintained multi-platform library I can get this to run with no problems.
