It looks like when I compile Kotlin/Native code, any global extension functions don’t get added to the Objective-C header. It seems like it would be possible to have

__attribute__((objc_subclassing_restricted))
__attribute__((swift_name("FooKt")))
@interface FooKt : FooBase
+ (void) bar:(Baz) receiver
@end

but I don’t see this generated. I do see it if I make my extension function in an object, though.

This is assuming my original Kotlin code in Foo.kt was

fun Baz.bar()

What is Baz? Kotlin multiplatform has some limitations on extensions on certain types

[Landry Norris]

In this case, Baz is a simple data class with no member functions. I have some extension functions. Baz is defined inside of Foo.kt

I just created an object for now that wraps my extension functions. When I have time later, I’ll try out a few different things and see what may be causing it to get exported or not. Do you have any examples of limitations so I know where to start?
