Just for the sake of being the first one to ask: when will there be a version of CfD for the freshly released Kotlin 1.6.20?

[Grégory Lureau]

Is it released tho?

[Casey Brooks]

Well, 1.6.20 needs to be released first… And then the upstream Android Compose repo needs to be updated before it will be available in CfD.

So we still have a little while.

It is out: https://maven.pkg.jetbrains.space/kotlin/p/kotlin/dev/org/jetbrains/kotlin/kotlin-bom/1.6.20/

it's not really out. as always, wait for the release announcement. due to the number of components involved, some of them do end up being uploaded before others, but that doesn't mean the release is ready. https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C0B8MA7FA/p1648837660784229?thread_ts=1648833678.641699&cid=C0B8MA7FA

and every single release works this way. just seeing some artifacts does not mean it's released. there will be an announcement when the release is complete.

Ok, now it's out...
@Luc Girardin if you're that keen, the fastest and most unsupported 😇 way to get 1.6.20 compatibility is probably just to keep refreshing the Compose UI artifacts list and trying any new Dev build that pops-in. I mean you could go hunting in GitHub for even earlier sight on compatible revisions but that's way too much effort for me to even consider.

github's not where to watch, gerrit is. https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/platform/frameworks/support/+/2020776

[ephemient]

then once it goes into androidx and compose-jb merges and releases you'll have it

[Dima Avdeev]

We are working on it jetpack compose

The real question is - when will the compiler API stabilize and we won’t have to worry about this every release 😛

[Luc Girardin]

@spierce7 For your information, I am able to compile everything with version 0.0.0-on-rebase-12-apr-2022-dev670 (together with Kotlin 1.6.21). This is not a stable realease, but at least everything work for me…
