When you hear JPA, you think #Java. But what about #Kotlin?
This code looks correct, but a DB-generated ID changes after save() and entities disappear from HashSet/Map. Val and non-null types give false guarantees due to the reflection.
How to avoid it 👇

Command completion (..) in IntelliJ IDEA
Command completion (..) extends regular completion. It lets you discover and use IntelliJ IDEA features without having to remember shortcuts.

Too many shortcuts to remember? With command completion, you only need one.
Move forward with your code.
As simple as typing a dot or two.
