# koin

Why is my state not being saved in SavedStateHandle when injecting with koin?

val homeViewmodelModule = module {
    viewModel { (handle: SavedStateHandle) -> HomeViewmodel(handle, get()) }
}

class HomeViewmodel(
    handle: SavedStateHandle,
    private val datastore: DataStore<Preferences>,
) : ViewModel(), KoinComponent {

private var _newState: String by handle.saved(
    key = "new_state",
    init = { "original" }
)

I set the state to _newState = "new state" send the app to the background, kill process and when restarting the value is the original

How do you kill it?

[Eugen Martynov]

Try next - enable dev options, set “Don’t keep activities”. Open app, put in background.

[Eugen Martynov]

When you kill app from recents - there is no chance OS gives app time to store things

Here are some other ways to simulate process death https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11365301/how-to-simulate-android-killing-my-process

Kill process in the device processes in AS.
It should work, as it does in other projects.
Something is not right with koin it the config.

Ah oke

[Eugen Martynov]

Then I’m wrong

[Eugen Martynov]

Maybe try to remove handle as builder parameter and just use get?

[Eugen Martynov]

viewModelOf(::HomeViewModel)

This is in kotlin multiplatform project.
Also tried using get() and didn't work.

[Eugen Martynov]

Oke, then I’m silent, let’s wait for experienced guys

[Sergio C.]

Ok. Thanks.

Looks like what you were trying to do https://proandroiddev.com/saving-the-ui-state-in-a-compose-multiplatform-app-8e1c57500986#2803-ac9aec2ef21a
