I'm trying to add a dependency on a CocoaPod with ...

# kotlin-native

I'm trying to add a dependency on a CocoaPod with custom cinterop options, as described here. I want cinterop to pass "-fmodules" and "-fcxx-modules" to the compiler, and so I'm using the following bit inside the cocoapods block of my build.gradle.kts file:

pod("MatrixSDK"){
            extraOpts = listOf("-compiler-options = -fmodules -fcxx-modules")
}

But I continue to get an error that says:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalStateException: Unknown option -compiler-options = -fmodules -fcxx-modules

I'm clearly just using the command wrong, but I can't find any documentation for proper use anywhere. Can someone help me out with this?

I’m afraid -fmodules flag is not supported

Thats unfortunate. So, as was suggested in the comments of that post, it seems like my only option to fork the Pod's git repo and replace all the uses of @import with #import , is this correct? Are there plans to support the "-fmodules" flag in the future?

[Viacheslav Kormushkin]

Correct, for swift pods it may be also required to #import all `@import`s from generated objc header to the pod umbrella framework.
As for the -fmodules support, it definitely will be added in future but unfortunately I don’t have any specific dates for it
