kotlinlang

also is there a `.field` equivalent in Kotlin for constructors? I can't seem to find one, and it is really annoying to manually create the property definition...

a `.field` equivalent? What exactly are you looking for?

using my previous example I could do
`Files.newBufferedWriter(logFile).field` in the `init{}` block

and get `writer` as a val which can be accessed outside the init block

oh, I see, you’re talking about a live template

I mean, I don’t know that that’s much more difficult than just writing `val writer = {the code you were going to write out}` after the init block

but I'm talking about if there is some calculated value in `init{}`

which I want to use that calculated value to make another calculation to assign to a `val` or something
