What is the best way to define log TAG constant in Kotlin?

Question

I\'m creating my first Kotlin classes in my Android application. Usually for logging purposes I have a constant with name TAG. What I would do in Java is:

Answer 1

Declare of TAG variable with val

class YourClass {
   companion object {
      //if use java and kotlin both in project
      //private val TAG = MyClass::class.java.simpleName

      //if use only kotlin in project
      private val TAG = YourClass::class.simpleName
   }
}

Use the variable like

Log.d(YourClass.TAG, "Your message");
//or 
Log.e(TAG, "Your message");
