Is there a “kotlin way” to handle delegation to a class (as opposed to an interface). E.g. I have a class Base which doesn’t implement anything, and I want to create class Derived which extends Base and delegates to an instance of Base. I know I can use regular java dynamic proxies; wondering if there’s a “kotlin” way.

eric239: I guess the Kotlin way would be to extract the interface from Base that you want Derived to use, then delegate to the interface. There’s no way delegate to a class built in to the language.

okay, makes sense
