Bind view in arbitrary class

[Sargun Vohra]

It would be nice to be able to do something like this:

class Sample : KotterKnifeTarget {
    override val rootView = something
    val textView = bindView<TextView>(R.id.foo) /* finds the view from rootView */
}

The view binding extension methods would be on KotterKnifeTarget. This way we could use KotterKnife with Renderers or anywhere else.

What is the advantage of having that if you can just do

class Sample {
    val textView = something.bindView<TextView>(R.id.foo)
}

@mustafin but I am not sure about this:

class Sample {
    val textView = something.bindView<TextView>(R.id.foo)
}

That view method returns an object of type ReadOnlyProperty and not an object of type TextView. I can use the getValue method but which is the value for the parameter property: KProperty<*>?
