A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

```GlobalScope.async {
    while (isActive) {
        println("test")
    }
}```
This works on Android and jvm but doesn’t work on iOS. I don’t get any error, it just doesn’t do anything. Is it possible to make it work somehow? `GlobalScope.launch(context = <http://Dispatchers.IO|Dispatchers.IO>)` would be fine too I guess but I can’t see `<http://Dispatchers.IO|Dispatchers.IO>` on iOS :thinking_face:

probably related to <https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.coroutines/issues/462>

Oh.. so it's notnsupported yet.. thank you for the link. I think I saw a tweet from <@U8NMFHUGJ> saying that he was able to make it work in his iOS app :thinking_face:

I haven’t been doing anything with GlobalScope, so I don’t know about that. For iOS, if you use the production version of coroutines, they’re single threaded and have other restrictions. There’s a draft PR with support for multiple threads.

<https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.coroutines/pull/1648>

There is a preview version of coroutines published that you can try out:
```1.3.3-native-mt```
We’re using that with some almost-production code.
