Could not find com.badoo.reaktive:coroutines-interop:1.2.2-nmtc

[rickytribbia]

Is it x.x.x-nmtc still needed to use reaktive coroutines interop with new memory model?

If yes, I notice that 1.2.2-nmtc couldn't be found.

Thank you for your work

Indeed, we forgot to publish 1.2.2-nmtc. It's still needed for the new memory model, thanks for raising it. I will prepare the mt-coroutines branch for the release today.

@arkivanov When 1.7.20 is released I can merge mt-coroutines in the main branch, right?

@CherryPerry As mentioned in this comment, they are gradually stopping support of the native-mt coroutines in coroutines v1.6.x, and the support will be stopped completely in coroutines v1.7.0. Indeed, since Kotlin 1.7.20 the new memory model will be enabled by default, and there will be a way to opt-out. Merging mt-coroutines into the main branch would be a massive breaking change for users still on the old memory model for whatever reason.

I've been thinking about merging mt-corotunes into the main branch, and at the same time removing the support of the old memory model in Reaktive v2.0.0. This should boost performance further on all platforms. There is a todo item in #620. I will be working on v2.0.0 soon. Does it sound reasonable?

Released, should be available soon.
