idk the kotlin way =(

Maybe something like:

@get:Synchronized
@set:Synchronized
var autoStartService = false

wat i tought at first, but i always heard its bad idea to syncronize a bool 😛

You can use AtomicBoolean as well, instead of synchronizing a boolean

cool 😛 that might work

Yes, AtomicBoolean probably good idea. But I don’t think that it’s bad in this case, because you don’t syncronize boolean value itself, only setters and getters. Also,

@set:Syncronized + @field:Volatile

should work, but actually AtomicBoolean is better
