Do i have to do anything special to be able to use the @Throws annotation in a commonMain module? The IDE doesn't find and i'm using kotlin 1.3.41

AFAIK @Throws exists only in JVM and native, so you’d have to do your own expect/actual declarations to access it in common

And how would you go to declare so ios knows that a method from the common's can throw an exception?

[gmaciel]

Oh, i probably have to declare i expect an annotation, right? Probably that.

Yup, i had the same issue. Had to create annotation in common and platform impl: https://github.com/4ntoine/NotesServerApp/blob/master/app-api/src/commonMain/kotlin/name/antonsmirnov/notes/usecase/AddNote.kt#L22, https://github.com/4ntoine/NotesServerApp/blob/master/app-api/src/commonMain/kotlin/name/antonsmirnov/notes/usecase/Throws.kt, https://github.com/4ntoine/NotesServerApp/blob/master/app-api/src/commonIos/kotlin/name/antonsmirnov/notes/usecase/iosThrows.kt#L3
