Hey 👋
Using the experimental API, how do you retrieve the CoroutineScope of the executor inside coroutineExecutorFactory or onIntent?
I’d like to use the same mechanism as with the previous API for my flows to be automatically cancelled when the scope is disposed.

Just realised, but not deleting the message in case it’s useful in the future.
this is actually a CoroutineScope inside onIntent and onAction , allowing this:

executorFactory = coroutineExecutorFactory {
    onAction<X> {
        flow
            .onEach{...}
            .launchIn(this)
    }
}

That’s brilliant, Arkadii. I love this new experimental API.
Maybe this can be documented a bit further, though, I had to deep dive into MviKotlin to find it.

Thanks for pointing it out! I think it's actually time to make the DSL stable. Filed https://github.com/arkivanov/MVIKotlin/issues/96

The update to Kotlin 1.9.0 is blocked by https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-62001
So it may take some time.
