There must be a better way to do this.

@goncalossilva is this because unsafeCast is available only under the js* source sets?

unsafeCast is available on Wasm too, but its type must inherit from JsAny which ByteArray doesn't.

@goncalossilva maybe you can introduce your own unsafeCast temporarily? It's just a call to asDynamic, although not sure how it works in WASM.

Ah just seen, it's implementedAsIntrinsic, so no luck on that.

I've just added support for wasmJs to antlr-kotlin and I've experimented a bit with it.
Working with primitive types in a shared way, with JS interop like this case, doesn't seem to be possible.
I ended up duplicating some of the code and using WASM types like JsBoolean and JsNumber, that you can get with, e.g.:
yourBool.toJsBoolean()
The js functions also have different signatures and compile time requirements, so they don't play well together.

If you need WASI file system APIs, I've been pointed to https://github.com/kowasm/kowasm
You'll need to copy-paste the WASM imports and Kotlin functions, but they should work.

@lppedd nice share, thanks! I have some downtime during the holiday season, but I'll definitely be looking into these when I pick this back up.
