It would be cool if a multiplatform projects can somehow reflect a platform's naming conventions.
E.g. having a property named `websiteUrl` in Kotlin and `websiteURL` in ObjC/Swift :slightly_smiling_face:

That would change the name for Java, not for Kotlin.

And about JS? Or different native targets? :slightly_smiling_face:

They have theirs but I don't remember what they're called.

There definitely are CName and JsName, just dig deeper to the Reference(<https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/index.html>). Not sure it has the same for ObjC, because of the prefix thing. But I suppose you are talking about importing ObjC things and making them prettier by default, don’t you?

`@CName` seems to be for a different purpose though:
&gt; Makes top level function available from C/C++ code with the given name.

Even though it's documented  I cannot actually use it in my code. It doesn't exist :open_mouth:

Did you import something like a `kotlin.native.CName`? In example here <https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-native/tree/master/backend.native/tests/produce_dynamic/simple> it looks like this should help.
And yes, I might be misleading with it’s purpose, but I’m not sure what kind of name-changing you want to achieve.

It's probably not available because I'm in am multiplatform project with iOS target and not in a purely native Kotlin project.
Also, I need to declare the name in common code, not in platform code.

You can try declaring `@OptionalExpectation annotation class CName` in your common code and `actual typealias CName = kotlin.native.CName` in your native. I haven't tried `CName` on iOS though so I don't know if there's something different for ObjC.

True, thanks.
`CName` is for `C` exports :slightly_smiling_face: iOS code is ObjC which is very different and Swift will be even more different.

Yeah. I have no idea if it works or not but since <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-28801> is closed and the only thing that exists is `@CName` and not a separate `@ObjCName`, I figure maybe it's worth a try. Definitely nothing Swift-specific exists right now though because Kotlin only interops with Obj-C

As I said, I have no `CName` in my project. Neither in common code, nor in platform code :confused:

`CName` doesn’t affect produced Objective-C/Swift API.
`ObjCName/SwiftName` is not available yet.

Is there a ticket to track when that will be available?
