I have Java code which uses

object.wait()

and

object.notify()

. What's the best way to convert this to Kotlin? The converter in IntelliJ replaces

Object

with

Any?

, but

wait()

and

notify()

are of course not defined on

Any

.

thread blocking is the worst possible solution regarding thread-safety it was also the only one available in old JDK versions first, you might want to get a little information about

Future

,

CompletableFuture

, etc.

Thanks. I thought about passing around a

CountDownLatch

, but you're right; a bigger refactoring is probably necessary

If you need to port your Java code wihtout much hassle you can use

(obj as Object).wait()

(same with

notify()

)
