I have a project which contains the following modules:
- common
- common-js
- common-jvm
- backend
- web
The idea is that I put my shared (kotlin) code (mainly models) in common, which can be used in both the kotlin driven backend and the javascript driven webapp using the recently introduced multiplatform support. To do this, I created a new multiplatform application in Intellij, and added the backend and web modules to it.
An example class in the common module:
data class Show(
val id: Long,
val type: ShowType,
val title: String,
var description: String? = null
)
The backend is a simple spring boot application. It has a dependency on the common-jvm project:
compile project(":common-jvm")
Now when I run gradle bootRun
, the application starts and works fine. However, when I try to run the same application using IntelliJ, I get errors like:
Error:(68, 26) Kotlin: Type mismatch: inferred type is
kotlin.Long
butjava.lang.Long
was expected
Error:(68, 65) Kotlin: Type mismatch: inferred type iskotlin.String!
butjava.lang.String
was expected
On this line, I try to create an instance of the Show
model using data from a json source:
val movie = Show(json.get(id).asLong(), ShowType.MOVIE, json.get(movieTitle).asText())
I am using Kotlin 1.2.10 and spring boot 1.5.9.RELEASE.
Anybody who knows what causes this and how it can be solved? I tried putting -Xmulti-platform
in the additional command line parameters in the project structures for the backend module, but this did not work either.
