# inline-option
|
||
|
|
An implementation of an `Option<A>` type in Kotlin using the `inline class` feature.
|
||
|
|
See https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/inline-classes.html
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It’s just a small proof of concept which is why I decided to omit the usual gradle bloat.
|
||
|
|
Build and test via:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```sh
|
||
|
|
$ kotlinc-native Option.kt OptionTest.kt
|
||
|
|
$ ./program.kexe
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The implementation uses an empty value placeholder to allow for nullable types (i.e. `Option<Int?>`).
|
||
|
|
I don’t think those are ever a good idea to have, but I saw no reason not to support them.
