val specials:Map<String, (Any)->Unit> = mapOf(
"callMe1" to {asParam1()},
"callMe2" to {asParam2()}
)
fun asParam1(num:Int) {
println(num)
}
fun asParam2(text:String) {
println(text)
}
fun caller() {
specials["callMe1"]?.invoke("print me")
specials["callMe2"]?.invoke(123)
}
fun main(args: Array<String>) {
caller()
}
My requirement is simple, I want to save the function asParam1 and asParam2 as a value in the variable specials. And invoke it later on by fetching the value from a Map.
However, the compiler doesn't like it:
Error:(1, 40) Type inference failed. Expected type mismatch: inferred type is Map Unit> but Map Unit> was expected
Error:(1, 69) No value passed for parameter num
Error:(1, 96) No value passed for parameter text
While this task is pretty simple in a weak typed language, I don't know how to do in Kotlin. Any help would be welcome. Thanks!
