Do we need to call

viewModelScope.cancel()

In ViewModels? I see that the documentation for ViewModel.kt says:

* This scope will be canceled when ViewModel will be cleared, i.e [ViewModel.onCleared] is called

But I can't find the code that actually calls

close()

No you do not need to, look into the

viewModelScope

implementation

Ah thanks. I see it now. The getter puts the

viewModelScope

in the

bagOfTags

using

setTagIfAbsent

. And that's closed when

ViewModel.clear()

is called. Great, thanks!
