Trying to mess up with klibs, made my first "util"...

# kotlin-native

Trying to mess up with klibs, made my first "util" library that has few functions, compiled it to a klib library, but I have no idea how to acess its functions in code, can someone help?

[J-Rojas]

You will need to import the klib bindings. You will need to know the package of the code modules defined inside of the klib for importing.

oh ok, let me try

[Aregev2]

my lib has only one class which is InputUtlils

[J-Rojas]

that class should be defined in a package somehow, similar to Java (within a directory structure, have a package declaration). Then you can import it under that package path.

[Aregev2]

okay, I will recompile the lib thank you

[Aregev2]

still cannot understand how to do that

[Aregev2]

i made a directory structure, recompiled it and still can't access the class

[J-Rojas]

Your class should be in a directory structure like so: mypackage/utils/InputUtils.kt then at the top of the InputUtils file you would declare the package package mypackage.utils and in the client code, you would import the class import mypackage.utils.InputUtils.

[Aregev2]

oh sorry if I am irritating this question, again how can I get my lib binding and where do I place them in my project files?

I'm not familiar with the command line Konan tool. I use gradle. Gradle offers a means to link klibs with your app code. This might give you some insights of how it works with the Konan CLI
