Instead of use

val mobileMain by creating {...}

, can we put this result in a map, without creating a new

val

? For example, something similar to:

myMap["mobileMain"] by creating {...}

(do not compile) My motivation is that I would like to create a helper method to store sourceSets in a map, since I would like to consult this map later. The

creating

delegation is using something like:

operator fun provideDelegate(thisRef: Any?, property: KProperty<*>) = ExistingDomainObjectDelegate.of(
        when (configuration) {
            null -> container.create(property.name)
            else -> container.create(property.name, configuration)
        }
    )

Do you want all the source sets in a map or just a subset?

What do you mean when you say

the former

? It looks like I’ve found an workaround

val myMap = mutableMapOf("mobileMain" to create("mobileMain"){...})

If possible I would like to store all my sourceSets on a map.

sourceSets

is a map of all your source sets.

I see, the problem was that I wasn’t find a way to create a new entry in the sourceSets without using the delegation method. But I think

create

solves the problem to me. Thanks 😃
