Hello, in an MP project for the iOS target we do not need to depend on a kotlin stdlib like we do for all the other sourcesets, what’s the reason for this?

[ribesg]

There’s no specific native stdlib (yet?). The iOS sourceSet depends on the common sourceSet, which should depend on stdlib-common which contains all the mpp stdlibs.

[ribesg]

stdlib-common contains the pure Kotlin stdlibs, stdlib depends on stdlib-common and contains the JVM wrappers/extensions/etc for JVM stdlibs

[r4zzz4k]

Native stdlib exists and we're using it in native targets, it's just added as a dependency implicitly and unconditionally.

[ribesg]

Oh, ok. It’s added by the mpp plugin itself?

[svyatoslav.scherbina]

Native stdlib is added by the compiler itself.

Thank you for the explanation!
