Hi all, anyone knows how to send types by parameter?

like the above snippet code

@juancho I think you would use `KClass`: https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin.reflect/-k-class/index.html

Hi @homburg thanks for the advice. I'm not really sure how to use it. How should you use it in the above snippet code?

Can we create platform type from Kotlin code? I have a class, that read json from api, and should serialize it to POJO if a callback return true. But I would have to make it return X? which I don't want.

Maybe i can cheat it with declaring the interface in Java? Ok. It does work. But it sucks to convert 10 methods declaration to java 😄

OMG

@yoavst can't you just assert it X!! somehow and throw an exception?

I'm using Kovenant. I don't want it to go to fail {} method

Why not? It is designed that way

Fail = session expired, no connection... Success = got the data.

So if the callback return true then there is no need to serialize it to POJO. And there will be no

success

in this case.

Oh, i got you

Basically you want the compiler to forget about the nullability and allow you to do your thing , right?

@yoavst ?

I'll reply you in language-changes.

@yoavst Frankly, i still can't get your motives. I think your case is not that rear and it should be analyzed.

Actually, I think I can solve it with extension method like

successNotNull

or something. OK, it is much better idea.

@voddan: So thanks for helping me understand I don't need to hack Kotlin this time simple smile

@yoavst you are always welcome!

Anyone have any experience using Mockito (or any other mocking/stubbing library) to mock kotlin functions? I’d like to mock functions, provide stubbed responses, then verify that the expected parameters were passed to them.

Maybe I just need a way to easily build a function that can verify it was called with certain parameters? Hm. It’s certainly easy to just create something like that ad-hoc in the test code itself. Just a little more verbose than I’d like.

i'm using mockito to verify that view functions are called

in a simple project

@vishnurajeevan: Looks like you’re just doing normal method mocking in there, rather than stand-alone functions.

Yeah, that's true

I can take a look in a bit

Is there a method on Map that will add a key/value if it doesn’t exist, but not if it already does?

@jkwatson:

putIfAbsent
