And has there been any word on whether or not the following syntax will be added?

val a = 1, b = 2, c = 5
val d = "D", e = "e", f = "etc"

Right now it's kind of possible as:

val (a, b, c) = listOf(1, 2, 5)
val (d, e, f) = listOf("D", "e", "etc")

But I think the former is clearer

Kotlin is great language . But I still can't find any opportunities or jobs related to Kotlin . Most of them end up being Android dev. None for kotlin/server side . ☹️ Does anyone here know some opportunities and Jobs in Kotlin ?

Hello everyone. I wonder if there is any certification for Kotlin just as it exists for Java?

is this normal? 2 gradle deamons:947MB:531MB, and 1 maven:106MB? along with IDEA:1.7GB

Does anyone else not like how JetBrains websites show the data-collection agreement view? Clicking the tiny Y or N or trying to type Y or N....it's cutesy, but not mobile friendly at all :( Also, sometimes you can't access it at all in embedded small Kotlin-playground samples...

what is the kotlin-native equivent to ::class.java.newInstance

What would be the reason behind only allowing public constructors on inline classes?

is this a correct implementation of

.forEach

inline fun forEach(action: (T?) -> Unit) {
        val iter = iterator()
        var it = iter.next()
        while(it != null) {
            action.invoke(p1 = it)
            it = iter.next()
        }
    }

as

.forEach

is part of

java.Collections

right?

as im basically trying to implement

java.util.ArrayDeque

in kotlin native

is this correct?

override fun iterator(): kotlin.collections.Iterator<T> {
        return object : kotlin.collections.Iterator<T> {
            var node = head
            override fun hasNext(): Boolean {
                if (node != null) {
                    if (node?.next != null) return true
                }
                return false
            }
            override fun next(): T {
                if (node != null) {
                    val value = node?.value
                    node = node?.next
                    return value as T
                }
                throw Exception("No Such Element")
            }
        }
    }

How are extension functions handled when two of them are valid? As an example, I'm thinking of adding

Any?.filter

,

Any?.map

etc extension functions, to help with null handling. How would the compiler react if it is used in a file in which

List.filter

(from the standard lib) is called? More precisely, if I write the following, which extension function would be called (assuming both are imported):

val l = listOf (...)
l.filter { it... }

In that case they are both valid choices by the compiler, since

List

is also a

Any?

. So, which one is called?

i’ve a (probably) stupid question: how to replace a line in a file? (i even never had this issue in java, so i don’t know how to do it in a simple way either)

are there any rules of thumb when to use extension functions and when to put them into the type itself?

Hello, does someone know how to create issues in the kotlin github repo ?

for iterator().hasNext() does the current element count as a true condition

by the way, is there way to ignore individuals on slack? asking for a friend...

Hi, Is it possible to have function which has two generic types and explicitly define only one type in call sites:

`
        suspend fun <T, U> DataSource.mustHave(block: suspend T.() -> U): U =
            ((this as? T) ?: throw RuntimeException("Operation is not supported")).block()
`

and use it:

dataSource.mustHave<DataSource.HasAddOperation> { add(command) }

Logically it should be able to infer U type automatically, but if I'm specifying first type T compiler requires me to specify also U type. eg.

dataSource.mustHave<DataSource.HasAddOperation, AddResult> { add(command) }

Is it possible to somehow declare that extension function in a way that U type be inferred automatically?

Isn't the slack moderated? Perhaps the moderation could take an action on spamming

does kotlin have its own version of

Cloneable

as i cant find it in the docs nor in the search thing at kotlinlang.org

currently i'm doing basically this:

private var job: Job

fun init() {
    GlobalScope.launch { job = launch { task() } }
}

fun stop() {
    GlobalScope.launch { job.cancelAndJoin() }
}
`

this feels extremely dirty to me. what is the more proper way to do this?

is there any way i can condense this further?

if (returnDelimiters) false
else it.equals(str)

I found a small mistake in the docs, where do I report this, github or youtrack?

Hi. I'm batching some data in a coroutine and sending the list over a channel. I'm assuming it'll be a data race if I clear this list after sending. Is there a method which return all the elements from the list and clears it?

tests should be able to access

internal

functions of

open

classes in the same package in main correct?

Hi, anyone knows a library with common data structures implementations? (directed graphs, btrees, etc.)
