Metadata issue

[dhakehurst]

Hi, I think use of metadata is the right way to go. However, there seems to be an issue, I am depending on klock (transitively) via other libs of mine. And I get this error, not sure why the android libs are getting in the way?

I think I have solved the issue,

I was trying to use the kotlin generated libs from a pure java project.

it is necessary to add the

"attribute(KotlinPlatformType.attribute, KotlinPlatformType.jvm)"

to the dependency configuration in order to disambiguate between the different options

Can you post your build.gradle file

[dhakehurst]

I can't, but I think this should have the answer,

https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/building-mpp-with-gradle.html#disambiguating-targets

I get the same error, but I cannot apply "attribute(KotlinPlatformType.attribute, KotlinPlatformType.jvm)" to the "com.soywiz.korlibs.klock:klock" dependency because I have configured the multiplatform project to use the Js variant.

This is not a problem when I compile the project but currently, I am using liquibaseRuntime, so I think this could be the problem.

[eugenio1590]

I fixed this changing the "com.soywiz.korlibs.klock:klock" dependency to compileOnly.

compileOnly("com.soywiz.korlibs.klock:klock:$klockVersion")
