In Kotlin, the keyword reified is used to obtain information about the type at runtime in generic functions, but it requires that the function be declared with the inline modifier.
This is because generic types in Kotlin are usually erased during compilation (type erasure), and without inline, it is not possible to get a specific type at runtime.
Therefore, reified cannot be used without inline — the compiler will produce an error.
Correct usage example:
inline fun <reified T> isInstance(value: Any): Boolean {
return value is T
}
If you remove inline, reified cannot be used.
