Is there a good Kotlin example equivalent to this: http://f2prateek.com/2017/04/21/unwrapping-data-with-retrofit-2/ for a generic Envelope<T> response body adapter? The converter factory in this example uses the Java wildcard generic (*) and I'm not sure how to adapt that to Kotlin

[Dico]

Try convert java file to kotlin file. I dont believe there is any complication

[zachtib]

it uses the Types class, which I don't seem to have (on Android), is there an extra dependency I need?

[gildor]

I think Types is a helper class from Moshi and code from your example uses it

[gildor]

Gson also has analogue of this function

[zachtib]

TypeToken?

[zachtib]

val envelopeType = Envelope::class.createType().javaType
val parameterized = TypeToken.getParameterized(envelopeType, type)

[zachtib]

oh, nope, createType needs a parameter

[zachtib]

solved it! Though I'm now having unrelated errors. thanks

[zachtib]

val parameterized = TypeToken.getParameterized(Envelope::class.java, type)

[gildor]

Yes, correct, TypeToken, just wasnot sure about class name

[zachtib]

I eventually got it all working, thanks for the help!
