I am trying to obtain the value of every field in an object, but I am apparently unable to do so. I am doing this:

fun <T : Any> getFieldValues(obj: T): List<Any?> {
    val cls = obj::class
    return cls.memberProperties.map { it.get(obj) }
}

But this does not compile, because I am getting

KClass<out T>

for

cls

. Is there any way to do this in a type-safe manner?

No, it's a known problem: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-16432 the only workaround we know is an unchecked cast 😨

val cls = obj::class as KClass<Any>

Thanks for the heads up!
