facing a weird bug in KMP project with jvm and js target
• compileKotlinJvm build successfully
• compileKotlinJs builds successfully
• compileCommonMainKotlinMetadata fails with dependency resolution errors
Anyone faced this issue before? What might the cause be? WA??

[Anton Lakotka [JB]]

Hi! Can I see build log failure and gradle configuration?
Its hard to say what went wrong.

[andylamax]

If by build log failure you mean the gradle output, here it is
Task :authenticator-core:compileCommonMainKotlinMetadata

You said it fails with dependency resolution errors.
Here I see that commonMain cant see some declarations. Are you sure that they must be accessible?
The reason why compileKotlinJvm and compileKotlinJs work is because they see such dependencies from their platform variants.

It is still unclear why it fails.

[andylamax]

I just found out that even compileKotlinMetadata builds fine as well

[andylamax]

if this helps, IDEA also marks the declarations as unresolvable

[Anton Lakotka [JB]]

Ok I got it. Do you use kotlin.mpp.enableCompatibilityMetadataVariant=true ?

[andylamax]

No, I don't. Should I add it?

[Anton Lakotka [JB]]

No, I was curious why then compileKotlinMetadata builds fine but compileCommonMainKotlinMetadata don't. With such property, it can occur.

So back to your situation. Can you make a sample project that reproduces your issue?
Because It is hard to say what is wrong based on the information you gave.

[andylamax]

Will try to do so. But just to add a bit of context, I am using gradle's composite builds, these dependencies are swapped in place with "includeBuild", is that a know issue?

[Anton Lakotka [JB]]

Well, I can't understand what is the issue on Kotlin's side at the moment.
The only thing I see now is that code in commonMain can't be compiled. So I need more context 🤷

[andylamax]

Let me try to work on a reproducer then

[mkrussel]

I got errors like this when the maven-publish plugin is applied.

[andylamax]

what the hell. Removing maven-publish actually works. Thanks alot @mkrussel

[andylamax]

what do I do when I still need to be able to publish?? Any known WA?

[mkrussel]

What I did was create a flag that could be passed in when I want to publish. I then only applied the plugin when that flag was present.

Then when it came to configuring the iOS source sets. If i was publishing I did not use the ios function but instead called each iOS target manually. I also then added the folders iosMain and iosTest to the created target based source sets.

I don't do that when not publishing because it confuses Android Studio with directories belonging to multiple source sets. The warning is "Duplicate Source Sets Detected".

[Anton Lakotka [JB]]

What kotlin version do you use? 1.6.20?

[mkrussel]

I'm on 1.6.10

[Anton Lakotka [JB]]

And what happens if you upgrade to 1.6.20?

[andylamax]

also, I never stumbled upon this problem until I started using composite builds. Are you using composite builds by any chance??

[mkrussel]

https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-42387/compileIosArm64MainKotlinMetadata-Unresolv[…]ce-for-native-functions-after-adding-maven-publish-plugin

[andylamax]

I am on 1.6.21 @Anton Lakotka [JB] But I still face the problem

[andylamax]

bumping to 1.7.0-RC2 didn't help either

[mkrussel]

I attached an simple repo case to the ticket

[Anton Lakotka [JB]]

Right, so composite builds technically can cause such issues. But I have some context now. And thanks for the YouTrack issue. I'll take a look
