Is there a way to have different input types for setters? For example,

var bar: String = "5"
var foo: String
    get() { return bar }
    set(value: String) { bar = value }
    set(value: Int) { bar = value.toString() }
    set(value: Float) { bar = round(value).toInt().toString() }

there's a compiler plugin for this, but I think it's not been officially announced https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin/tree/master/plugins/assign-plugin It'll be used in an upcoming Gradle release Try taking a look at this PR https://github.com/gradle/gradle/pull/22240

Thanks @Adam S, I might wait for the release unless I get impatient.

I think https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-4075/Allow-setters-overloading-for-properties is a better fit for this request

Thanks @ephemient, I like the looks of the setter overloading. It's exactly what I'm looking for but it looks like I'll have to wait. I'm using

setValue

functions at the moment and that will do until this feature eventuates.
