is there a way to generate a giant when clause - given a List of predicates?

[Dominaezzz]

At runtime?

[asad.awadia]

either is fine

[Dominaezzz]

You can use kotlinpoet to generate the source code from the List.

[asad.awadia]

no no I dont want code gen like that

[Dominaezzz]

Oh. I guess you can just loop through the predicates at runtime and call them?

[Derek Peirce]

It would be interesting to have some sort of inline list feature that let you automatically unroll a loop over a set of elements, like inlineList(a, b, c).forEach { println(it) } that compiled to println(a); println(b); println(c)

enum is compact at bundling predicate dispatch
