In the kotlin stdlib the LinkedHashMap does not have the accessOrder property that the java.util.LinkedHashMap has. Is there a replacement if I want to use such a functionality, for example for as a LRU cache? Or should I look for a third party library for simple LRU caching (with kotlin multiplatform support)?

I think I've found an implementation for multiplatform here: https://github.com/korlibs/kds/blob/master/kds/src/commonMain/kotlin/com/soywiz/kds/CacheMap.kt

Thanks, that is similar to how I implemented it myself (except that I also need a refresh on get since eviction is LRU). java.util.LinkedHashMap has the advantage that it can do the refresh on access in one step (access + move to end) while the decorator approach has multiple steps. Probably wont matter too much.
