According to documentation, `kotlin-stdlib/kotlin....

According to documentation, kotlin-stdlib/kotlin.native/toUtf8 should be available on String in my multiplatform project. But I cannot invoke it. Intellisense doesn’t see that method. What am I doing wrong?

[nestserau]

Okay, seems I get it. I can use toUtf8 for compileKotlinIos task (native code), but not for JVM. So that’s where the code will have to get platform-specific.

If you are using kotlinx serialization, it has these that you can use

expect fun String.toUtf8Bytes(): ByteArray
expect fun stringFromUtf8Bytes(bytes: ByteArray): String
