# multiplatform

[araqnid]

We're trying to convert a small app to be multiplatform -- one issue we're encountering is that in IntelliJ, the JVM platform module has dependencies on build kotlin-stdlib and kotlin-stdlib-common, which causes things like buildSequence to be unusable. It seems this happens just in a simple multiplatform template project too -- does anyone else get this? (currently working around by manually removing kotlin-stdlib-common from the project structure, which is a pain)

What version of Kotlin idea plugin do you use?

[araqnid]

1.2.40

[araqnid]

specifically, 1.2.40-release-IJ2018.1-1

I've checked the similar setup, and did not see major usability problems with buildSequence. What errors do you get? Are they reported by gradle build or by IDEA only?

[araqnid]

They are reported by IDEA only, the Gradle build seems ok (and Project->Rebuild project reports no errors)

[araqnid]

Sorry, I mean buildString rather than buildSequence

[araqnid]

it seems to be seeing the one version with a typealiased StringBuilder as distinct from the other

[ilya.gorbunov]

Yeah, that's known problem, unfortunately: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-20406

Regarding the resources not being found on the classpath when launching - I made an example project here to illustrate https://github.com/araqnid/kthings

[araqnid]

thanks for the pointer to the YT ticket

[ilya.gorbunov]

Thank you for the test project. We'll take a look at that problem with resources.

Hello, @araqnid. Do you have Delegate IDE build/run actions to gradle enabled? The option may be found through Settings > Build, execution, Deployment > Build Tools > Gradle > Runner

[araqnid]

@Liliia I didn’t - activating that setting made the example find the resource, thank you

[Liliia]

Cool, thanks. Currently, Kotlin MPP projects aren’t supported by JPS, so for a proper builds execution this option should be activated for MPP projects, as well as Run tests using set into Gradle Test Runner. There is a request to improve the usability, see https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-23577

Unfortunately it does seem to be a global option rather than a per-project one, but hopefully the overall experience will improve as multiplatform support matures
