Anyone know the differences between the presets? iosX64 vs arm64 etc?

[gumil]

and which ios preset is the safest to target?

[gildor]

iosX64 is for simulator, iosArm64 is for real device

[gumil]

thanks for the fast reply!

[gumil]

are you able to do unit test in a arm64 preset?

[gildor]

I believe you cannot run unit tests for iOS

[gildor]

only instrumentation, run them on device or simulator

[gildor]

at least it how I understand unit tests

[gumil]

well yeah. I was just wondering if the iosX64 is strictly for simulators and you should use arm64 when releasing the app?

Take a look at any Kotlin iOS sample/template/tutorial. For example: https://kotlinlang.org/docs/tutorials/native/mpp-ios-android.html

Also, how would we go about releasing artifacts for a library? Should we create artifacts for both arm64 and x64?

[svyatoslav.scherbina]

As a library for what? Swift?

[gumil]

to be used in a multiplatform project

[svyatoslav.scherbina]

Then your are supposed to have both targets enabled in your project.

[gumil]

does it already bundle the ios targets in the generated KLIB artifact?

[svyatoslav.scherbina]

Gradle plugin can publish a multiplatform library containing multiple klibs/jars/whatever

[gumil]

yes but it creates separate artifacts for arm64 and x64

[svyatoslav.scherbina]

Gradle kotlin-multiplatform plugin publishes all these artifacts within the single library.

See this tutorial for example: https://kotlinlang.org/docs/tutorials/multiplatform-library.html
