如何确定 kotlin-multiplatform 项目中的构建类型

Question

I'm working on a multiplaform project, iOS and JVM (I'm not targeting Android directly). Depending on the build type (debug or release) I want to configure the logging level (ie to print only errors in release). Since there is no a BuildConfig class available, how can I know from commonMain the build type?

Answer 1

Not a direct answer to the question, but for android/ios one can define a property like this:

in commonMain:

expect val isDebug: Boolean

in androidMain:

actual val isDebug = BuildConfig.DEBUG

in iosMain:

actual val isDebug = Platform.isDebugBinary

Answer 2

Use expected and actual functions. So in the common , you create something like expect fun isDebugEnabled(): Bool , then in iOS you implement it by using iOS specific API, similarly for Android.
