Hey everyone,
Is it possible to depend on c++ or Swift packages for native targets? If yes, does anyone have a small example of either? I can only find big complex setups, with complex Gradle setups.

Is it possible to depend on c++ or Swift packages for native targets?

You can do that through C wrappers or @objc attribute https://docs.swift.org/swift-book/ReferenceManual/Attributes.html#ID592
Which I guess isn’t the answer you were looking for 😞

I know that @salomonbrys has some experience with the topic.

I've talked (https://www.droidcon.com/2021/11/17/building-a-kotlin-multi-platform-advanced-library/) and written (https://medium.com/kodein-koders/create-a-kotlin-multiplatform-library-with-swift-1a818b2dc1b0) about this.
Hope you find what you need ;)

Wrapping a C library would suit me perfectly as well. I'm trying to wrap BCrypt which has a simple C implementation
