Kotlin older versions support about okhttp HOT 4 CLOSED

@swankjesse I've been following okio versions mainly, do we have a clear strategy for this?

from okhttp.

In general, the latest OkHttp will use the latest Okio and the latest Kotlin dependencies. All three libraries follow very strict compatibility rules.

It is safe to compile against OkHttp version X and run against version Y as long as Y >= X, even across major version changes.

If for whatever reason you must run with on an old version of Kotlin, find an old version of OkHttp that uses that old version of Kotlin. Typically this is necessary for Gradle plugins that run in old versions of Gradle.

I see, thank you. One important, recurring concern about using older versions is security. Since you're suggesting using older versions of OkHttp, is it safe to say that those older versions get security updates too? @swankjesse

No. Only 4.x and 5 alpha get security fixes

If you are concerned about security fixes you'll likely be on the latest kotlin also.
