Hi, I've encountered a weird error while upgrading my KMP library to Kotlin 1.3.71. My lib consists of two modules, one is core KMP lib, and the other is a Gradle plugin. When I try to execute test cases for the Gradle plugin, one of these throws an error like

e: Could not find "kotlinx-serialization-runtime" in [/Users/yshrsmz/repos/github.com/yshrsmz/kgql, /Users/yshrsmz/.konan/klib, /Users/a12897/.konan/kotlin-native-macos-1.3.71/klib/common, /Users/yshrsmz/.konan/kotlin-native-macos-1.3.71/klib/platform/ios_x64].

Here's the repo https://github.com/yshrsmz/kgql/tree/kotlin1.3.71-builderror If you run

$ ./gradlew build

at the root directory,

The generate task is a dependency of multiplatform ios target - X64

test fails. https://github.com/yshrsmz/kgql/blob/kotlin1.3.71-builderror/kgql-gradle-plugin/src/test/kotlin/com/codingfeline/kgql/gradle/KgqlPluginTest.kt#L166-L181 The weirdest part is, this test some time passes. It fails almost all the time, but sometimes it succeeds.

Hi! Your problem relates to compler caches. I'm still digging into it but as a workaround you may disable them. Here is the patch:

@orangy Thanks! this seems to solve the problem for now(actually I'm not sure if this is really

fixed

or it is fortunately succeeding several times in row)

@yshrsmz I have an update regarding your problem. The test failure is caused by dependencies of

kgql-core

. For some reason dependencies added to the

nativeMain

source set were not written to metadata for the published

kgql-core

artifact. So the cache builder cannot compile caches due to the missing dependencies. This behaviour is observed only when the

nativeMain

source set is added to compilations using the

source

method. If you specify a

dependsOn

relation between platform source sets and

nativeMain

instead of using the

source

method, the dependencies become correct and the cache builder works fine. Please note that using the

dependsOn

relation is the recommended way to configure a source set hierarchy. So, the patch attached should fix your problem. After that you may enable the caching back.

@orangy Thank you so much! I can confirm that

kotlinx-serialization-runtime-native

does not exist in dependencies when I use

source

, and exists when I use

dependsOn

. Out of curiosity, is this something that will be fixed?

Yes, it should be fixed. We don't know the exact root cause yet, so I'm going minimize this sample and investigate this problem deeper. But probably not in the near future. BTW,

@orangy

is another guy, let's not disturb him 🙂 My nickname is @ilya.matveev.

woops, sorry
