Is there way to avoid initialisation crash?

abstract class A {
	
	init {
		foo()
	}

	abstract fun foo()
}

class B : A {
	val b = /* init b */

	override fun foo() {
		b.something() // crash
	}
}

The super class call foo() on init so, the property b is not yet initialised

You could call foo() later one way or another, or implement foo() through composition instead of inheritance, or somehow pass the information you're trying to convey with foo() implementation through the super constructor, etc.

It's also not a Kotlin/Native issue

there should be a warning in IntelliJ when viewing A, something like "Calling non-final function foo in constructor"
