A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

Is there a kotlin function to scope an object on a condition? Something like `withIf(myObject.propertyToFiler == true) { myObject -&gt; ... }`

A function with this signature would be impossible, as you just pass a boolean to it.

You could use:
```
if (myObject.propertyToFiler == true) with(myObject) { myObject -&gt; ... }
```

Or if you need a function:
```
inline fun &lt;T, R : Any&gt; withIf(x: T, access: Boolean, block: (T) -&gt; R) = if (access) with(x, block) else null
```

There are stdlib functions `takeIf` and `takeUnless`.

Ah, `takeIf` is that I thought I’d seen before

But molikuner’s function is actually a nicer solution
