Kotlin - generate toString() for a non-data class

Question

Situation:

I have a class with lateinit fields, so they are not present in the constructor:

class ConfirmRequest() {
           


        

Answer 1

What about using Kotlin reflection? I am into Kotlin for a few days, so apologies, if I misunderstood question, or wrote "Kotlin inefficient" example.

override fun toString() : String{
    var ret : String = ""
    for (memberProperty in this.javaClass.kotlin.memberProperties){
        ret += ("Property:${memberProperty.name} value:${memberProperty.get(this).toString()}\n");
    }
    return ret
}

This can also could be implemented in newly created interface for example ToString2Interface as fun toString2. Then all classes which implements ToString2Interface would have toString2()
