In this post on LinkedIn Mateusz Teteruk dives into the concept of property delegation in Kotlin, a powerful feature that enhances our code by delegating the responsibility of a property's getter and setter methods to another class. From this article, you'll learn about four essential Kotlin property delegates: - Lazy initialization: How to use the
lazy function for delaying expensive property initialization until it's needed. - Observable properties: Utilizing
Delegates.observable() to monitor and react to changes in a property's value. - Intercept observable properties: Implementing
vetoable to intercept and possibly veto changes before they're assigned to the property. - Storing properties in a map: A strategy for dynamically managing object properties within a map, useful in scenarios like JSON parsing.
