Hey guys, I'm trying to initialize my realm in hilt like so:

@Provides
    @Singleton
    fun provideLocalRealm(config: RealmConfiguration): Realm {
        return Realm.open(config)
    }

And inject it in my use cases...
But I'm receiveing a error
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Scoped provider was invoked recursively returning different results: RealmImpl[/data/user/0/ee.visittallinn.tallinncard.dev/files/REALM_LOCAL}] & RealmImpl[/data/user/0/ee.visittallinn.tallinncard.dev/files/REALM_LOCAL}]. This is likely due to a circular dependency.
As I understood from documentation we could open the realm once and keep it as a singleton in the application lifecycle.
Or I should open every time I need to use it and only inject the RealmConfiguration...?

Hmm, not 100% sure what is going on there. I haven’t used Hilt that much , but the error seems to come from there and complain that you are getting different instances somehow.

Calling Realm.open() multiple times will return different instances, but I would assume that the @Singleton anotation cached the result? 🤔

But yes, you should be able to cache the result of Realm.open() and use it throughout.

I also assume the the singleton cache it as a Singleton implementation, but weird that is not working.
