Module kotlin-data-ref¶

kotlin-data-ref provides identity-based wrappers and collection helpers.

The primary API is:

• Ref, a wrapper that compares the wrapped value by reference identity
• identitySet, identitySetOf, and identityMap, mutable collections backed by identity keys
• distinctByIdentity, iterable and sequence helpers that remove repeated references without using structural equality

Use these utilities when equal objects must remain distinct unless they are the exact same object.
