Has anyone found a way to pass a lambda in a Serializable object?

How scripting related to serializable lambda?

[gildor]

You cannot serialize generic lambda.
Depends on what you actually trying to achieve, but In general way you should mark lambda as @Trasient and avoid serialization

[gildor]

But you also can have a class that extends functional interface and Serializable, so type of field of this class also should have multiple bounds functional interface and Serializable

[Jaymin.Kim]

Lambda code to String using scripting. that's my idea.

[gildor]

Scripting can compile and execute string as Kotlin code, but it cannot convert lambda object to source code

[gildor]

Also source code of lamda is not enough, it also may have state
