A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

In a lot of cases on android calls like this come up
`ContextCompat.getColor(context, color.colorPrimaryDark)`
which gives the error “type mismatch Required Context, Found Context?” I can get around this error by using “context as Context” or “context!!“, however these don’t feel like the right approaches. The Kotlin doc says !! is for “NPE-lovers” which I am not lol. What’s the best way to handle these situations? I’m still new to Kotlin and development in general and don’t want to develop any bad habits. Thanks!

`context!!` is fine. there's probably also `requireContext()` wherever you're calling this from

I have already faced the same problem then implement like below. Is it the right way?

At least, not unless you _expect_ context to be null and want to actually default to `null` in that case. But that seems exceedingly unlikely and even in the case where it is likely you probably want to fix your design so that the code bails much earlier.

`requireContext()` is better than `context!!` from my point of view
