A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

Does anybody use composite builds ("build-logic") with applying the kotlin multiplatform plugin? I always get the error `The root project is not yet available for build` called in `registerProjectStructureMetadata`

does it work with
```plugins {
    kotlin("multiplatform") apply false
}
```
in your root project? (may need a version)

KMP plugin needs to coordinate installation of Konan, NodeJS, etc. between projects and does so through the root project. AGP has similar requirements too

Yeah, that did work too. I found another workaround, instead of using a `.gradle.kts` plugin, I used a "normal" plugin (defined in kt file), then it worked too. But still strange

oh the plugin precompiled process would have issues with that, yeah

Gradle runs the plugin in order to learn what its extensions are so it can generate type-safe accessors, but the KMP plugin can't run in the "not a real project" world

Oh, that sounds more complex. I thought the precompiled plugins were basically "normal" plugins putting everything into the `apply(project: Project)` functions.

if I have a `.gradle.kts` that contains
```plugins {
    `java-library`
}
```
then I can use
```java {
    ...
}
```
in that script, because Gradle has executed the Java library plugin during the build (it will execute again when applied)

with binary plugins, you do everything yourself, so you need to rely on
```project.the&lt;JavaExtension&gt;()
```
or whatever it is, there are no type-safe accessors generated for you

(ditto Kotlin, except I can't use it as an example on the first part for reasons discussed)
