KMP: References is not linked if they are in shared code and there is an intermediate level between them

[atyrin]

Create a KMP library with KGP 1.9.20. Declare 2 ios targets. That is required for generating a few layers of shared native source sets

// commonMain
class Dokka

// iosMain
class IosDokka

// iosX64Main

/**
 * Ths fun consume [Dokka] and [IosDokka]
 */
fun consumeDokka(d: Dokka, iosD: IosDokka) {}

References to commonMain will not have a links

Installation

• Dokka version: 1.9.20

Related issue for K2: #3377. Probably, it is even a duplicate.

I have the same issue and there is one more case. Documentation from common isn't inherited in ios. If you have an interface or smth. in common source set and implementation in ios source set there would be no documentation for overridden methods and there even would be uncodument warning for them. For example:

// commonMain
/** Common interface */
interface Dokka {
    /** Method to implement */
    fun foo()
}

// iosMain
class IosDokka private constructor() : Dokka {
    override fun foo() {}
}

// jvmMain
class JvmDokka private constructor() : Dokka {
    override fun foo() {}
}

Undocumented: com.example/IosDokka/ (ios)
Undocumented: com.example/IosDokka/foo/#/ (ios)
Undocumented: com.example/JvmDokka/ (jvm)

No link for common class and no documentation for overridden method in for iosMain

Works fine for jvmMain

UPD Looked more closely. I have the same issue for other native targets too (linux, mingw, macos).
