Can java.io be used in multiplatform or is there an equivalent kotlin package that I need to use? Or is there a "multiplatform" properties file loader that anybody knows about? Thanks!
a
No java.io What class do you want to use?
m
kotlinx-serialization
has experimental 
properties
support: https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/tree/master/formats#properties
a
I'm BufferedReader / File / FileReader / Reader
m
As for loading files, there’s no multiplatform way afaik.

I think Korio may work for your use case https://korlibs.soywiz.com/korio/

I looked into the whole korlibs but there's no documentation. Apparently, I need to read the source code to grok how to use it.
But I'll look at it again. Thanks!

Agreed, documentation is lacking. You can join Slack/Discord channels mentioned on the site, the community might be able to help.

Http server? Even in native? Looks like the great library.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Okio is not for JavaScript
My project currently targets JVM and JS
Unless there's an update that I didn't see

Also JS browser? How would you use a 
FileReader
or alike in a browser for example? 🤔 What do you want to achieve?
a
NodeJS

No browser support

Okio-files dont have js support, yes, may be in future, you can ask there :) It has buffers support on js

I wrote the entire library already, but putting it in a multiplatform project, it blew up (obviously 🙂 ). So now I'm scrambling to "multiplatform-irize" it
KMM is like the Devil: You accept the promise, but you have to pay a high price to achieve it! 🙂
korlibs is for kotlin 1.3. I'm using 1.4.20. @Mayank have you used this lib in 1.4+?
t
pretty sure korio is 1.4 even if not all korlibs are

m
yes, Korlibs use 1.4.20 for version 2.0 and above.

Also, any chance that it will be in jcenter? Our company has an artifactory server which I MUST use.
(I know I may be asking the wrong person. 🙂 )
