I can't define actual typealas for JVM's AtomicReference:
commonMain: expect class AtomicReference<T>(value: T)
jvmMain: actual typealias AtomicReference<T> = java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicReference<T>

In Kotlin docs it's stated as possible. Is it so by design?

Not sure what’s wrong but that’s what we’re doing

[Arkadii Ivanov]

Mine is same, and does not work 😞

[Arkadii Ivanov]

The error is: The following declaration is incompatible because names of type parameters are different

[Arkadii Ivanov]

public constructor AtomicReference<V : Any!>(p0: V!)

[Arkadii Ivanov]

Do I need sources for this?

[kpgalligan]

Have you tried to compile it? Sometimes Intellij has errors that the compiler does not.

[Arkadii Ivanov]

Ahh, names of type parameters!

[Arkadii Ivanov]

Changed T to V in common and now it's fine

[kpgalligan]

Interesting

[Arkadii Ivanov]

Then it does not work for Native) Because AtomicReference has type parameter named T not V

[kpgalligan]

I don't typealias native.

I would like to
