also, can anyone explain why i was able to build with coroutines by setting gradle to 4.10.1 and using enableFeaturePreview('GRADLE_METADATA'), but not using gradle 5.1, which theoretically has that built in?

(I will accept “gremlins” as an answer at this point)

[Ellen Shapiro]

prior to doing that I was not able to get the kotlinx.coroutines package to show up on iOS, and I couldn’t create a CoroutineDispatcher.

(this was literally all I changed in order to go from fu in iosMain to 👍)

You need metadata in 5.1 too.

[Dominaezzz]

Which versions of Kotlin and coroutines are you using?

[Ellen Shapiro]

I thought 5.1 had metadata baked in

[Ellen Shapiro]

@Dominaezzz Kotlin 1.3.21, coroutines 1.1.1

[Ellen Shapiro]

(I also recall trying the enableFeaturePreview bit with 5.1 and it doing precisely nothing)

[Dominaezzz]

Metadata is still in preview in 5.1 and it has to be enabled.

[Dominaezzz]

Usage you tried 5.0, I heard there some issues with 5.1 or something.

[Dominaezzz]

Does your project not build with the import, or is the IDE just complaining?

[Dominaezzz]

You may need to explicitly specify the artifact as a workaround.

[Ellen Shapiro]

It would not recognize any of the kotlinx.coroutines imports, so I couldn’t override the CoroutineDispatcher to get things working on iOS
