# multiplatform

I’ve got a pretty basic Multiplatform project setup for an android and ios app.
When I assemble, I get several of these messages in the build output:

Configuration 'allSourceSetsCompileDependenciesMetadata' was resolved during configuration time.
This is a build performance and scalability issue.
See <https://github.com/gradle/gradle/issues/2298>

The linked gradle issue doesn’t have much detail.
My build still works ok. Is there something I can do to resolve this? Is it even something I should worry about? I’m just starting this project so currently it’s small and builds are fast. But it’s not going to remain that way, so seeing “build performance issue” is a bit concerning …

It means Gradle is configured to set up the source sets metadata too early (during the configuration phase, which is not parallel nor lazy, hence the scalability issues). I remember seeing this some time ago (~6 months?) but not recently. What are your Gradle and Kotlin plugin versions? Maybe the fix is recent

[CLOVIS]

If you created tasks yourself, ensure they are lazy: use register /`registering` instead of create /`creating` .

https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/task_configuration_avoidance.html#task_configuration_avoidance

If you don't create tasks yourself, it's possible this is happening inside the Kotlin plugin itself, in which case it will probably be fixed soon

It’s a known issue in the multiplatform plugin https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-51940/HMPP-resolves-configurations-during-configuration

@CLOVIS I’m using Kotlin 1.8.0, and Gradle Plugin 7.4.1.
The project was generated using the “Kotlin Multiplatform App” template in Android Studio.

@a-dd thanks for the info. I found that issue earlier, but I noticed the latest comment was from April 2022, and mentioned wanting to fix it in version 1.7. I’m on 1.8.0 so I wasn’t sure if it should still be showing up or not.

The fix hasn’t made it to 1.7 and 1.8 unfortunately 😞
