# multiplatform

[Adam Brown]

Aight one more, for the iOS source set in my common module, how do I get access to the platform apis? I see how I would include third party libraries via CocoaPods or a definition file, but not the built-in platform APIs

[Paul Woitaschek]

Well they should be in your class path

[Paul Woitaschek]

Try an import Foundation.*

[Adam Brown]

ya that's what it seemed like from the docs, but import Foundation.* Foundation isn't recognized

[Adam Brown]

this is in my iosMain source set

[Adam Brown]

also the platform.posix package isn't found which the docs seems to indication should be there

[Adam Brown]

ios {
        binaries {
            framework {
                baseName = "common"
                export("com.arkivanov.decompose:decompose:0.6.0")
                export("com.arkivanov.essenty:lifecycle:0.3.1")
            }
        }
    }

[Adam Brown]

ya I feel like something has got to be wrong, this sure indicates that at least the platform package should be available: https://kotlinlang.org/docs/native-platform-libs.html

[Arkadii Ivanov]

What Kotlin version are you using? Do you have HMPP enabled?

[Adam Brown]

1.6.10

[Adam Brown]

so no on HMPP, unless i upgrade to 1.6.20

[Arkadii Ivanov]

In this case you have to enable it manually - https://kotlinlang.org/docs/multiplatform-hierarchy.html

[Adam Brown]

what will HMPP do for me in relation to this issue?

[Arkadii Ivanov]

It will enable the commonizer, so you can use platform things in intermediate source sets - https://kotlinlang.org/docs/multiplatform-share-on-platforms.html

[Adam Brown]

aha!

[Adam Brown]

let me just try updating to 1.6.20 that should enable it by default I think

[Arkadii Ivanov]

You can also do it without HMPP, the code will compile but the IDE will show errors. You can rename iosMain to e.g. iosX64Main, edit the code and rename back to iosMain.

[Adam Brown]

yup, that did it, looks like it lives under the package platform.Foundation.*

[Arkadii Ivanov]

1.6.20 would be good, but you will have to use the latest unstable versions of Compose

[Adam Brown]

thanks again, for the millionth time

[Adam Brown]

ah i see

[Adam Brown]

is decompose on that version yet?

[Adam Brown]

maybe ill stick w\ stable and enable it manually

[Arkadii Ivanov]

Decompose depends on Compose 1.1.1, but they should be binary compatible I guess.

[Arkadii Ivanov]

1.6.10 should work fine, unless you are affected by a bug fixed in 1.6.20 😀

[Adam Brown]

unrelated, but I wonder, now that there's some jetbrains compose native targets, if we'll get native desktop compose eventually.

[Arkadii Ivanov]

There are dev builds for native iOS and macOS already

[Adam Brown]

thats pretty cool. Not shipping with a bundled jvm on desktop would be a nice feather in the cap.

[Arkadii Ivanov]

Btw, there is a channel for Decompose-specific questions - #decompose

[Adam Brown]

Oh great, now that it looks like I'm over the hump of most of the multi-platform specific issues that will be helpful
