Hi Everyone, I need suggestion in declarative programming. how I can make my if else code into declarative code

[Colton Idle]

Do you have any example of what you're trying to do? An if statement is declarative (at least to me 😄 )

[Muhammad Zaryab Rafique]

Yes. if(currentTime <= specificTime}{ type = NewType}

[iamthevoid]

fun <T> T.applyIf(predicate : (T) -> Boolean, action: T.() -> Unit) {
   if (predicate(this)) apply(action)
}

[iamthevoid]

predicate can be lambda or just boolean, lambda is more dynamic (could use param as arg)

[iamthevoid]

If i’ve understand you correctly

[Muhammad Zaryab Rafique]

Yes Right. Thanks Dear @iamthevoid

[iamthevoid]

as i see usage of that fun looks like exactly as usage of if construction. So think carefully if you really need that DSL way ))

[Muhammad Zaryab Rafique]

Right
