0.16.0

FileKit 0.16 expands native Linux dialog support, adds recursive directory deletion, and improves iOS picker reliability.

This release brings file, directory, and save dialogs to Kotlin/Native Linux through the XDG Desktop Portal, fixes camera presentation and photo-picker filename collisions on iOS, and updates FileKit for Compose Multiplatform 1.12.

✨ What's New

• Add file picker, directory picker, file saver, and default-application opening support for Kotlin/Native Linux (linuxX64, linuxArm64) by @Enaium in #636
• Add opt-in recursive deletion of non-empty directories with PlatformFile.delete(recursively = true) by @anggrayudi in #641

✅ Improvements

• Handle Linux portal cancellation and service disappearance, and clean up default-application opener processes by @Enaium in #636

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Present the iOS camera from a dedicated window in the active scene by default, fixing camera presentation beneath Compose dialogs and broken touch handling after dismissal by @PierreVieira in #639
• Prevent iOS PHPicker multi-select copy collisions when selected assets share a filename, while preserving their original filenames by @cgpllx in #646
• Fix Compose Desktop release shrinker failures and potential runtime linkage errors caused by the updated Skiko Image.encodeToData signature in Compose 1.12 by @vinceglb in #654
• Safely remove dangling symbolic links and Windows directory junctions without deleting their targets by @anggrayudi in #641

📝 Documentation

• Document Kotlin/Native Linux dialog support, D-Bus dependencies, and consumer linker setup by @Enaium in #636
• Document recursive directory deletion and symbolic-link behavior by @anggrayudi in #641

⬆️ Dependency Updates

• Gradle 9.6.1 → 9.7.1
• Kotlin 2.4.10 → 2.4.20
• Android Gradle Plugin 9.3.1 → 9.4.0
• Android compile SDK 36 → 37
• Compose Multiplatform 1.11.1 → 1.12.0
• Compose Material 3 1.11.0-alpha07 → 1.12.0-alpha03
• AndroidX Lifecycle 2.10.0 → 2.11.0
• Coil 3.5.0 → 3.6.2
• Nucleus 2.3.2 → 2.5.15

⚠️ Migration Notes

• Android compile SDK is now 37; target SDK remains 36. Update your Android build configuration accordingly.
• Recursive deletion is opt-in: use delete(recursively = true) to remove non-empty filesystem directories. The default remains recursively = false; Android document URIs continue to delegate deletion to their document provider.
• Kotlin/Native Linux dialogs require a running XDG Desktop Portal with a file chooser backend and the libdbus-1 runtime library. Building a consuming application requires the target architecture's D-Bus development libraries and may require an explicit linker search path; see the Linux setup documentation.
• iOS camera calls without an explicit presenter now use a FileKit-managed window. Apps supplying FileKitOpenCameraSettings(presenter = ...) retain their existing presentation behavior.
