Is there a way to access `buildSrc` declarations within your app module?

Can you elaborate what you mean? Which declarations where and used where exactly?

sure - for example, i have a `Configurations.kt` in `buildSrc` where i define a global version for my app and i wish to reference this within my `:app` module. I know you can do this by declaring new `configFields` in build configs like
```android {
  defaultConfig {
    buildConfigField("String", "VERSION", "\"${Configurations.App.Version}\"")
  }
}```
But this is limiting as this is only doable in an android project, whereas my setup is a multiplatform project.

So you want to access it at runtime in the production code?

You can for example use a `WriteProperties` task to create a properties file with the values you want and then read it at runtime.

Or you can have a template resource file with placeholders, that you still via configuration of `processResources` task

hmm, how would you load said `.properties` to each of the modules?

If you need it in multiple modules, have one common that has the file and maybe a class to interpret it that you then can use from the other modules

I see, I will post my solution here once i figure it out. thanks for the direction <@U0152P3VB5J>.

Found a <https://github.com/yshrsmz/BuildKonfig|gradle plugin> that lets me do this quite elegantly in a kotlin multi-platform setup.
