KLIB LIBRARY INSTALL
KLIB LIBRARY CODE

Bitcode files of additional native objects. Kotlin/Native libraries are zip files containing a predefined directory structure, with the following layout:įoo.klib when unpacked as foo/ gives us: - foo/ Libraries installed in $installation/klib directory. Libraries installed in the default repository (For now the default is ~/.konan, however it could be changed by setting KONAN_DATA_DIR environment variable). When given a -library foo flag, the compiler searches the foo library in the following order:Ĭurrent compilation directory or an absolute path.Īll repositories specified with -repo flag. Have fun! Advanced topics Library search sequence Now compile the program linking with the library you have just created: $ kotlinc- native use.kt -l kotlinizer -o kohello Remove any traces of it from the current directory: $ rm kotlinizer.klibĬreate a very short program and place it into a use.kt: import kotlinizer.*

KLIB LIBRARY INSTALL

You can install kotlinizer to the default repository: $ klib install kotlinizer Now let's check out the contents of the library: $ klib contents kotlinizer The library has been created in the current directory: $ ls kotlinizer.klib

Get() = 'Kotlin $this' $ kotlinc- native kotlinizer.kt -p library -o kotlinizer

KLIB LIBRARY CODE

Place the tiny library source code into kotlinizer.kt: package kotlinizer

$ klib -repository Several examplesįirst let's create a library. Remove – remove the library from the default repository use $ klib remove Īll of the above commands accept an additional -repository argument for specifying a repository different to the default one. Install – install the library to the default location use $ klib install Info – inspect the bookkeeping details of the library $ klib info The klib library management utility allows you to inspect and install the libraries.Ĭontent – list library contents: $ klib contents For example, using the simple f native library definition file provided in your Kotlin/Native distribution $ cinterop -def samples/gitchurn/src/nativeInterop/cinterop/f -compiler-option -I/usr/local/ include -o libgit2 klib wrappers for native libraries as its main output. This command will produce a program.kexe out of qux.kt and bar.klib cinterop tool specifics For example: $ kotlinc- native qux.kt -l bar To link to a library use the -library or -l flag. This command will produce a bar.klib with the compiled contents of foo.kt. For example: $ kotlinc- native foo.kt -p library -o bar To produce a library with the Kotlin/Native compiler use the -produce library or -p library flag.
