does anyone have an example of an MPP (not an app project) w/ an android library target?

interesting the first one created a main source set just to place AndroidManifest.xml
thanks! the second seems a little cleaner.

The Android plugin doesn't know how to read the manifest out of the multiplatform plugin's sourcesets, so you need to put the manifest in 
main
instead of 
androidMain

In the second one you need to map the kotlin source sets to where android expects them. See “4. Android Specific Configuration”. Both cases have some not-ideal config, but not horrible. I followed the multiplatform settings model yesterday and it worked quite well
Don’t forget
Copy code
android {
        publishAllLibraryVariants()
    }

yes, the second one is clear on that
the source sets that is
i am not seeing any discussion on publishAllLibraryVariants

It ensures that you publish both release and debug configurations

publish to where
r

07/22/2019, 4:46 PM
as a maven dependency
ie as something that you'd import in your dependencies block

yeah i won't be publishing
at least not at first. perhaps to artifactory going forward.

Probably not a big deal yet then

gotcha. thanks.
seems to be working, but none of the IDE features work in the Android sources
no code completion, no auto-imports, no error highlighting
it doesn't even seem to understand that it is source code at all
yep - doesn't recognize it as a sources root

But if you expect a class in common does it ask you to create the actual class in the android side?
k

Kris Wong

07/22/2019, 7:44 PM
the compiler does
the IDE only informs me to create one in iosMain

07/22/2019, 7:45 PM
hum

Kris Wong

this may have happened because I started this project from a template that used jvm, and I switched it

I think the easiest is to create a new project with the default that gives you both an android and ios app
in intellij idea.. cant remember the exact name
k

Kris Wong

07/22/2019, 7:47 PM
I don't need apps. apps I have 🙂
s

Sergioedcigreja

07/22/2019, 7:47 PM
then you delete the ios app and in build.gradle of the library
you change from application to library
yeah I know what you want to do
i'm doing something similar
k

Kris Wong

07/22/2019, 7:51 PM
i mean that's essentially the same thing I have done through a different path
interesting that that template doesn't create 
androidMain
and 
androidTest
, though it does specify dependencies for those source sets via the kotlin block in build.gradle
s

Sergioedcigreja

07/22/2019, 7:52 PM
in my project I dont use those either
k

Kris Wong

07/22/2019, 7:53 PM
seems like this particular setup still needs some more thought from the Kotlin team
s

Sergioedcigreja

07/22/2019, 7:53 PM
the android dependencies
I put them outside of kotlin
k

Kris Wong

07/22/2019, 7:56 PM
alright, thanks for the workaround
hah, making a change to build.gradle and rerunning the import fixed it
