Greeter Use Case
Common Shared Module Android iOS Platform name
Common expect class Platform() { val platform: String }
Common expect class Platform() { val platform: String }
Common expect class Platform() { val platform: String }
Common expect class Platform() { val platform: String } Common
Common Android Android iOS Platform name
Android actual class Platform actual constructor() { actual val platform:
String = ”Android” }
Android actual class Platform actual constructor() { actual val platform:
String = ”Android” }
Android actual class Platform actual constructor() { actual val platform:
String = ”Android” }
Android actual class Platform actual constructor() { actual val platform:
String = ”Android” } Common Android
Common iOS Android iOS Platform name
iOS actual class Platform actual constructor() { actual val platform:
String = “iOS” }
Common Shared Module Android iOS Platform name
Common class Greeter { fun greet(): String { return "Hello
${Platform().platform}!" } }
Common class Greeter { fun greet(): String { return "Hello
${Platform().platform}!" } }
Using Shared Module
Project Setup Shared Android App iOS App
Use Case Show platform name Hello Android
Android App class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() { }
Android App class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() { fun onCreate( ...
) { val greeting = Greeter().greet() } }
Android App class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() { fun onCreate( ...
) { val greeting = Greeter().greet() textView.text = greeting } }
Android App class Greeter { ... } Common Source Build
Use Case Hello Android
Android App class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() { fun onCreate( ...
) { val greeting = Greeter().greet() textView.text = greeting } }
Hello iOS Use Case 9:41 Show platform name
iOS App class Greeter { ... } Common Source Build
Framework
iOS App import SwiftUI import shared
iOS App import SwiftUI import shared func greet() -> String
{ return Greeting().greeting() }
iOS App import SwiftUI import shared struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View { } }
iOS App import SwiftUI import shared struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View { Text(greet()) } }
Hello iOS Use Case 9:41 Show platform name
Inside Objective-C Framework
iOS Framework class Greeter { ... } Common Source Build
Framework
iOS Framework import SwiftUI import shared func greet() -> String
{ return Greeting().greeting() }
iOS Framework Shared Base Shared Platform Shared Greeting
Shared Base __attribute__((swift_name("KotlinBase"))) @interface SharedBase : NSObject ... @end;
Shared Base __attribute__((swift_name("KotlinBase"))) @interface SharedBase : NSObject ... @end;
iOS actual class Platform actual constructor() { actual val platform:
String = “iOS” }
Mappings https: // kotlinlang.org/docs/native-objc-interop.html#mappings
Shared Platform __ attribute __ ((swift_name(“Platform"))) @interface SharedPlatform : SharedBase
... @end;
Shared Platform __ attribute __ ((swift_name(“Platform"))) @interface SharedPlatform : SharedBase
@property (readonly) NSString *platform @end;
Common class Greeter { fun greet(): String { return "Hello
${Platform().platform}!" } }
Common @interface SharedGreeting : SharedBase - (NSString *)greeting __ attribute
__ ((swift_name("greeting()"))); @end;
Android & iOS Shared Modules
Use Case Hello Android 29
Shared Module Shared src commonMain androidMain iOSMain
Android actual class Platform actual constructor() { actual val platform:
String = “Android ${android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT}" }
Hello iOS 14.4 Use Case 9:41
Shared Module Shared src commonMain androidMain iOSMain
iOS import platform.UIKit.UIDevice actual class Platform actual constructor() { actual
val platform: String = UIDevice.currentDevice.systemName() + " " + UIDevice.currentDevice.systemVersion }
iOS import platform.UIKit.UIDevice actual class Platform actual constructor() { actual
val platform: String = UIDevice.currentDevice.systemName() + " " + UIDevice.currentDevice.systemVersion }

API Design Challenges
Flows
Common fun getData(): Flow<Data>
Android val flow = getData() flow.collect { }
iOS getData( collector: T ## Kotlinx_coroutines_coreFlowCollector, completionHandler: (KotlinUnit?, Error?) ->
Void )
Common class CFlow internal constructor( val origin: Flow ) :
Flow by origin { fun watch(block: (T) -> Unit) { } }
Common class CFlow internal constructor( val origin: Flow ) :
Flow by origin { fun watch(block: (T) -> Unit) { onEach { block(it) } launchIn(CoroutineScope( ... )) } }
Common fun Flow<T>.wrap(): CFlow<T> = CFlow(this)
iOS flow .wrap() .watch { data -> }
