If I place a folder called 'aes' in the same directory as the file 'libaes.def' containing this:

package = aes
headers = aes/aes.h
headerFilter = aes/aes.h

Why does my multiplatform solution upon build give me this exception:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: /var/folders/60/htq84d4s4q55l9j0j1mh6d5w0000gn/T/tmp8457509487070388280.c:1:10: fatal error: 'aes/aes.h' file not found

If i enter the full absolute path to the files, everything works. But the documentation also states

the files we reference need to be relative to the folder where the definition file is, or be available on the system path (in our case it would be /usr/include/curl).

Am I understanding something wrong?

You have to specify includeDirs in your build.gradle

[Dico]

For the cinterop configuration

[Dico]

It would be good practice to put the headers and binaries in your build directory

[Dico]

And add a task that downloads them

@Dico Not finding includeDirs
for the multiplatform build.gradle

This is the part i'm using to setup the cinterop:

kotlin {
    targets {

        fromPreset(presets.androidNativeArm32, 'androidNative32')
        fromPreset(presets.androidNativeArm64, 'androidNative64')

        configure([androidNative32, androidNative64]) {
            compilations.main.cinterops {
                callback
                libaes
            }
            compilations.main.outputKinds 'dynamic'
        }
    }
}

[msink]

compilations.main.cinterops {
                    libaes {
                        includeDirs buildDir
                    }
                }
