has anyone used channels? this example shows constructing a Channel https://github.com/kotlin/kotlinx.coroutines/blob/master/kotlinx-coroutines-core/jvm/test/guide/example-channel-01.kt, but Channel is an interface

[Kris Wong]

https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.coroutines/blob/master/kotlinx-coroutines-core/common/src/channels/Channel.kt

[Dominaezzz]

Channel is also a function to make channels

[Kris Wong]

just saw that 🙂

[Kris Wong]

for some reason it doesn't seem to be working from my common code, though

[Dominaezzz]

Not working?

[Kris Wong]

yes, that source set can't see anything in kotlinx.coroutines.channels

[Dominaezzz]

Enable metadata?

[Kris Wong]

i feel like there is an iOS specific dependency that I am missing

[Dominaezzz]

Does kotlin.coroutines resolve at all?

[Kris Wong]

and JVM

[Dominaezzz]

I think you need to explicitly add coroutines dependency to each source set.

[Kris Wong]

oh, the package is kotlinx-coroutines-core-common

[Kris Wong]

i was using

kotlinx-coroutines-core

[Kris Wong]

now we're cooking

[Kris Wong]

common gets core-common, JVM gets core, and native gets core-native

[Kris Wong]

got my channel, now I am missing runBlocking 😱

[kpgalligan]

Doesn’t exist in common. You can expect/actual to jvm and native

[Kris Wong]

oh, so it's in native, but not in common?

[Kris Wong]

interesting... i guess maybe because it's not in JS or something?

[kpgalligan]

Yeah. My understanding is the JS situation

[Kris Wong]

gotcha
