1 min readOct 4, 2020
Option 1:
inline fun <reified T, Y> MutableList<T>.listOfField(property: KMutableProperty1<T, Y?>): MutableList<Y> {
val yy = ArrayList<Y>()
this.forEach { t: T ->
yy.add(property.get(t) as Y)
}
return yy
}
Usage:
val serviceIds = services.listOfField(ServiceModel::id)
Option 2:
var serviceIds: MutableList<String> = services.map { it.id }.toMutableList()
Option 3:
var serviceIds = services.map(Person::id)
