Question, I'm using Kotlin Multiplatform 1.3.50. I'm trying to move away from running android in a multiplatform-library under the folder main into androidMain

I've added this onto the android-library extension:

sourceSets.forEach {
        val root = "src/androidMain/${it.name}"
        val manifestFile = file("src/androidMain/AndroidManifest.xml")
        it.setRoot(root)
        it.java.setSrcDirs(fileTree("${root}/kotlin"))
        it.manifest.srcFile(manifestFile)
    }

which seems to at least make everything look in the right place. However, now my expect/actual in my common starts to complain
that it can not find the actual implementation for jvm set up, which is weird, because I have not setup a target for jvm, and the implementation
it should be looking for, does exist within the androidMain folder, but it does not look for it there, how can I change that?

You can try to verify your sourceSets using ./gradlew sourceSets

Maybe you see some path being wrong.

[Sebastian Sellmair [JB]]

Are you sure, that root does not need to be an absolute path for example?

[Sebastian Sellmair [JB]]

Oh wait
root is something like “src/androidMain/main/
While your java src dirs are then
“src/androidMain/main/kotlin” instead of “src/androidMain/kotlin”.

Probably your root should just be “src/androidMain”

You might also want to have a quick look into this PR ☺️

Yeah, you are correct, those paths does not look correct at all

[JoakimForslund]

That seems to solve it, thanks for giving a helping hand 🙂
