I would like to be able to have listener below init

-.kt

[ribesg]

Just use a normal class?

[ribesg]

class A(val p: P) {

    private val listener = MyListener()

    init {
        p.setListener(listener)
    }

    private class MyListener: Listener {
        ...
    }
}

@standinga Alas, that is not possible. You’’ll have to initialize the vals/vars you use in the init above the init block itself

[standinga]

thanks @ribesg didn't think about it! This works nice!

[standinga]

well turns out it works almost nice, because it's problematic with using variables from outer class, need to pass them to inner class and every time I update my call back I need to update constructor etc.

[ribesg]

@standinga could you use an inner class instead maybe? I never really used them so I don’t know if that would work

[standinga]

hey @ribesg, yes with inner class it solves all my problems. Thanks again! I've learned something interesting!
