This is a bit nuts :thinking_face: `expect class ...

# multiplatform

[Marc Knaup]

This is a bit nuts 🤔

expect class Platform_TimeZone // common
actual typealias Platform_TimeZone = ZoneId // JVM - error because incompatible modality (ZoneId is abstract)
actual typealias Platform_TimeZone = NSTimeZone // iOS - works fine

If I make the expected class abstract, then it's the other way round 😞
Any way to work around that without wrapping everything in a new class?

It's kinda annoying that it works like this. You didn't declare any attributes of the type, I don't understand that an abstract type is not a valid representation of it

Provided you don't have a constructor in declared in the expect, seems just like a bug
