kotlinlang

This doesn’t look Kotlin-related, and no, a problem is not Kotlin related if you are using Kotlin somewhere in your project. Please ask on StackOverflow or a more appropriate Slack workspace like Android United instead. Also, please keep long code snippets and stack traces in snippets (details can be found in the Slack docs online, which you agreed to read when you joined this workspace), or at the _very_ least wrap them in multiline code blocks using triple-backticks (` ``` `) since it fills up scrollback and occludes other people’s questions and discussion.

Hi :slightly_smiling_face:
From your post I assume you're new in this slack. Welcome!
I have couple of suggestions for you to make your stay here better, if you'll have it.
1. Unless question is kotlin-specific (that is—it only happens in kotlin, doesn't happen in Java, or something similar, like concerns kotlin library) it is not relevant in this slack and should be asked on StackOverflow or another more relevant resource
2. put one-line code/log/trace fragments in single backticks: ` ` `
3. put multi-line (2-10) fragments in triple backtics: ` ``` ` (shortcut: select the fragment, then press `Ctrl+Shift+C`)
4. put longer fragments into code/text snippets via message Plus menu or `Ctrl+Shift+Enter` shortcut
5. take a look at channels and ask your questions in the appropriate ones: e.g. for this one it could've been <#C0B8M7BUY|> if not for 1.
6. do not ask to ask, just ask
&gt; anyone online
7. do not do multi-message postings, consolidate followup additions in the original message's thread, e.g. like Shawn and me are doing with your latest message
8. before your first message in a channel, check the topic of the channel, to see if there are any specific rules your messages must follow there.
