Thats what I have so far. Thanks in advance.

Does anyone know if it's possible to get the image size from coil image loader? After loading my image I want to show a toast with the size in KB or MB.

I guess based on this https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-web-site/commit/30ce39a423f64dbd973b9f0768e2affbb56b5708#diff-d2793394d9d5216045358e64cf6b6dc7 that with View Binding being stable Kotlin Android Extensions for views are going away

Friends, am new to programming and android looking for materials to understand Object Oriented Programming in kotlin. Any suggestion will greatly help. Thank you

For a new Android Project(I’m comming from iOS), what should I use? Jetpack Compose or Flutter?

What version of studio are you on? This is a known bug with how studio is resolving dependencies for lint, when there is a transitive dependency which offers a newer version of activity implementing that interface, see: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/152245564 https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/146585040

PLEASE HELPP (StackOverflow does not have the answer) So i have a list(recycler view) of items which is loaded from a local db using room and pagination. Also i have used livedata for pagination. Now whenever i click an item, I want to highlight the text in it and save it to the database. But since this causes a change in the table, room triggers the livedata callback and the list is refreshed. So the problem is whenever i click “highlight text”, the list is refreshed and recycler view animation is fired leading to a bad ux. I want to avoid the room callback whenever i update the isHighlighted flag in the db. Also i want to keep using the pagination which uses live data observer, so i cannot remove the observer after the list is loaded.

Hi, is

Jetpack Compose

aware of configuration changes or should we still use

AAC ViewModel

Hey everyone, as showcased in Google samples making Repository class as Singleton seems to be bit confusing. So as per my understanding a Singleton class doesn't get Garbage collected as it's instance being stored into static variable. Doesn't this seems kind of anti-pattern. Until it's some common repository what's the use case for it to outlive it's scope which may be just within a smaller scope. So what do you guys think?? How many of you consider making Repository class as Singleton. If yes, then I'm really Keen to understand.

Hey everyone. Is there a simpler way to capture (Mockito) a single parameter of a Kotlin function that has multiple parameters, of which all have a default value.

fun foo(int: Int = 0, string: String = "")
verify(someMock).foo(int = intCaptor.capture)

Currently Mockito is throwing a

InvalidUseOfMatchersException

, claiming its expecting 5 matchers (actual number of parameters) and instead it only recorded one. Im hoping theres a better approach than creating 5 different captors.

android

questions to get smart answers and getting even smarter?! Even if question is not fully related to

kotlin

👋 I was working for a while on a use case for creating a gradient polyline on Google Maps in Android natively since it is not a built-in API in Google Maps Android SDK. So, I created a Github Repository that discussing the use case, the approach that I took, and how I implement it to show a gradient polyline on Google Maps in Android.
