# multiplatform

[darkmoon_uk]

I want to build a multi-platform library with separate platform-specific source-sets for Android Mobile and JavaFX Desktop. Since both of these would fall under the default jvmMain source set - I'm assuming I want to define additional JVM targets to separate the Android/JavaFX dependencies (e.g. androidMain and javafxMain and avoid using jvmMain to avoid ambiguity) ? Can anyone confirm this the way to go + any caveats/suggestions?

Typically you’d use an android target rather than a jvm one for your Android sources

Yes, in this case, you can use an jvm and android targets.

But, if you need to use the jvm target twice you will need to disambiguate this in the consumer and producer sides.

I asked something like these some time ago on this stackoverflow link: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54503916/is-it-possible-to-create-a-kotlin-multiplatform-project-referencing-the-correct

If you want, you can have, for your purpose,

jvm(“desktop”), android as targets

and commonMain, commonTest, jvmMain, jvmTest, desktopMain, desktopTest, androidMain, androidTest source sets if you want to. In this case you can use deppendsOn relation
