runBlocking() in Kotlin Native projects

I’m using ktor in a Kotlin Native project. The common sub-project of my project depends on io.ktor:ktor-client:0.9.5-rc13, which transitevly adds dependency on kotlinx-coroutines-core-common:0.26.1-eap13. launch() and async() are available for my project, but runBlocking() is not. Do I need to add dependency on any other library to the common sub-project to access runBlocking(), or is it not available by desing?

Thank you in advance!

If I’m not mistaken kotlinx-coroutines-core-common does not include runBlocking because it define the common interface to all platforms and the Kotlin/JS platform does not support runBlocking, so it’s not included. You need to add kotlinx-coroutines-core-native to your dependencies to use runBlocking

@SeekDaSky kotlinx-coroutines-core-native can only be used with Kotlin Native compiler, which includes basic Kotlin Native project or the Native part of an MPP, this part was clear to me. What was not fully clear is if kotlinx-coroutines-core could be used in a common subproject of an MPP. Now it is fully clear that it can’t be used, so the lack of runBlocking() in kotlinx-coroutines-core-common is by design. Thank you, this helps.
