I have a java class which reads data from some source and casts that data into given class. I pass the class name in which data has to be caste as SomeUserClass.java. How can i pass this info from Kotlin class to java function. I tried SomeUserClass::class.java but it gives me error.
This is the java function signature
public T getDataFromCache(Class<T> model) {
// some operation
}

and while calling from java i use
getDataFromCache(SomeUserClass.class);

how can i call this function from Kotlin class ?
Thanks in advance

Try simply SomeUserClass::class?

Using SomeUserClass::class.java works in my case, can you show the error message?

[rohit1899]

@adam-mcneilly when i do SomeUserClass::class i get type mismatch error. Required Class<SomeGroupClass!>! found KCLass<SomeUserClass>

@edwardwongtl i get type mismatch error. Required Class<SomeGroupClass!>! found KCLass<SomeUserClass>

You get the same error with or without .java at the end?

[rohit1899]

with .java i get Unresolved referance. and without java i get type mismatch

I took to Google because I think you're doing it right, and I found some stuff suggesting your configuration might be off. I'd double check some of it - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34144392/kotlin-fooclass-java-unresolved-reference-java-error

@adam-mcneilly hey thanks for the link. I had forgot to configure kotlin in my project. I did that and it is not working with SomeUserClass::class.java.
Thanks for the help.
Cheers !
