Using in your projects

Note that these libraries are experimental and are subject to change.

The libraries are published to kotlinx bintray repository and also linked to JCenter.

These libraries require kotlin compiler version 1.1.x and require kotlin runtime of the same version as a dependency.

Maven

Add Bintray JCenter repository to <repositories> section:

<repository>
    <id>central</id>
    <url>http://jcenter.bintray.com</url>
</repository>

Add dependencies (you can also add other modules that you need):

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.jetbrains.kotlinx</groupId>
    <artifactId>kotlinx-coroutines-core</artifactId>
    <version>0.17</version>
</dependency>

And make sure that you use the right Kotlin version:

<properties>
    <kotlin.version>1.1.3-2</kotlin.version>
</properties>

Gradle

Add Bintray JCenter repository:

repositories {
    jcenter()
}
