compose resources not loading on iOS ~ after 1.6.8 about compose-multiplatform HOT 5 CLOSED

The documentation does not specify at all how to access (common) resources on a iOS side of a Compose Multiplatform project.

🤯

UIImage.imageNamed(
    Res.getUri("drawable/logo.png")
        .substringAfter(NSBundle.mainBundle.resourcePath!!)
        .removePrefix("/")
)

UIImage.imageWithData(Res.readBytes("drawable/logo.png").toNsData())

@OptIn(ExperimentalForeignApi::class, BetaInteropApi::class)
fun ByteArray.toNSData(): NSData = this.usePinned {
    NSData.create(bytes = it.addressOf(0), length = this.size.convert())
}

Thanks for the quick reply and pointing this out !

I've tried the getUri, and when I do this

  ...
 val imagePath = Res.getUri("drawable/logo.png").substringAfter(NSBundle.mainBundle.resourcePath!!).removePrefix("/")

println(imagePath) // this output -> "composeResources/compose-resources/resources/drawable/logo.png"

the value of imagePath is exactly the same as in my above example ~ meaning it's pointing towards the correct path, however it's not loading/find the resource in there

Does Res.getUri display anything when you try it ?

@terrakok please take a look

@kocheick How do you integrate your kotlin code to the iOS app? Are you sure the resources are presented in the final app? If not, try to generate a new project and do the same

@terrakok
Closing this, all is actually well with Compose.
As I was trying to make a sample project to demonstrate this issue, I came to find out the reason my resources were not loading in the app was due to corrupted files ~ i had copied the logo image from one project to another within Intellij-idea and somehow the copy became a corrupted file (couldn't open it within the ide but no issue opening the original logo within the ide).
I ended up making a copy within Finder from the original project to the new project and now Compose displays it as it should.
