Hi, Im getting some problems with kotlin coroutines..
I'm trying to use runBlocking in my common code. And since I don't have a JS target (which is the only target that do not accept runBlocking), it should be possible, right? is there a workaround not being through expect/actual implementations?

[Sam]

No. Just use expect/actual and typealias for the actuals.

I worked! Thanks!!
But I used it like:

actual fun <T> runBlocking(block: () -> T): T = kotlinx.coroutines.runBlocking(){block()}

Since iOS doesnt support suspend functions... hope it wont be a problem later =/

[Sam]

iOS supports suspend functions within kotlin. It is only when going from ObjC/Swift -> Kotlin that isn’t supported. For that you should have an alternate function that uses a callback mechanism. That function can call into your suspend function.
