A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

```
User.find {
            Users[fieldName] eq fieldName
        }.firstOrNull()
```

I am using Kotlin Expose DAO Model! And Iam trying to buld a generic query to query for the fieldName by pasing it in. How can I do this? I mean, how can I access the field from `Users` by a variable?

Do you wont to access a class property by (string) name?

That's going to need reflection: <https://stackoverflow.com/a/35539628/5517612>

OK Thanks für the replies. Reflection is not a good choice as I wan´t to avoid reflection in business logic

You want to avoid reflection because it's unsafe? In the end your problem is inherently unsafe.

If you want to index by String you can never make it type safe.

You are right! I was wrong! Still thinking too much in a dynamic typed way where I come from!
