Is it known regression in cinterop?
libui have opaque pointers, say typedef struct uiArea uiArea;
Previously it was impored as typealias uiArea = CPointed
And now (in 1.4.0-rc) it is just missed in output of klib contents ..., and so not available by Ctrl-B in IDEA, and inspection by F2 complains "Cannot resolve symbol 'uiArea'".

I never had the typealias. It was always import cnames.structs.uiArea .

Well, maybe it changed over times, but now it just missed :)

Seems that now it lives in manifest/exportForwardDeclarations property.
But why IDEA don't see it?

Not sure, I'm always forced to type it by hand. Maybe they forgot to update the tooling.

s it known regression in cinterop?

libui have opaque pointers, say typedef struct uiArea uiArea;

Previously it was impored as typealias uiArea = CPointed

What was Kotlin version when it had different behavior?

And now (in 1.4.0-rc) it is just missed in output of klib contents ..., and so not available by Ctrl-B in IDEA, and inspection by F2 complains “Cannot resolve symbol ‘uiArea’”

AFAIK, exportForwardDeclarations were never indexed in IDE. That’s actually an issue that should be fixed: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-40741

Don't remember exactly, very old, more than two years ago. 😁

And - it should be indexed not only in IDE, in other tooling too, including Dokka.
