Anyone know how to pull in a dev build with gradle?

It’s similar to pulling in eap but you use `kotlin-dev` bintray link instead of `kotlin-eap`

do not forget ot also use the dev repo for the gradle plugin

<@UBBFK40RZ> what is the dev repo for the gradle plugin? `org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin-dev`?

no i mean you need to use the maven repo for the plugin and use a version like `1.3.60-dev-2244` (imaginary build number)

easiest is to use a buildscript block i think

or pluginsmanagement in settings.gradle.kts

BUT i think in the dev repo there is no gradle plugin markers

so the buildscript block worked better for me, sadly i have no copypaste example ready because its on my work computer, but i did this a few days ago to verify that a specific bug is really fixed

If i want to use the build for this commit
<https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-native/commit/215cf054106a2c8610f094227e69f1cbc78bdf29>

`Could not find org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:1.3.60-dev-2348.`

```
buildscript {
    ext.kotlin_version = '1.3.60-dev-2348'

    repositories {
        maven { url '<https://dl.bintray.com/kotlin/kotlin-dev>' }
        mavenCentral()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
    }
}
```

something like this, and then you need to apply the plugin too

<@UBBFK40RZ> did you have to change your update channel? For EAP we had to change to the EAP 1.3.x channel

nvm, turns out that specific artifiact didn’t get uploaded to bintray for some reason, works with a different build number

well it could have been that that commit failed tests

i find it hard to tell what are valid dev and eap versions, but then again i barely need to

sadly my project also relies on coroutines which is getting mad about differing kotlin versions, i don’t think there are any coroutines versions that use a dev build available

You can at least check <https://dl.bintray.com/kotlin/kotlin-dev/org/jetbrains/kotlin/kotlin-gradle-plugin/>
to see if it made it to bintray
