While working with flow I m having a type mismatch with the following code ```homeRepository requestStuff map stuff gt HomeState Success stuff catch emit HomeState Error Unknown it lt type mismatch as FlowCollector is waiting for the HomeState Success type ``` By adding ` filterIsInstance lt HomeState gt ` before ` catch ` it works but I m wondering if there is a better way thinking face Thanks

` map stuff gt HomeState Success stuff as HomeState `

don t know why I didn t think of it face palm Thanks thumbsup

The minor issue is AS generate a `No cast needed` on `as HomeState`

` map lt HomeState gt stuff gt HomeState Success stuff ` should also work

While working with flow I m having a type mismatch with the kotlinlang #coroutines

While working with flow I'm having a type mismatch with the following code:

homeRepository
.requestStuff()
.map { stuff -> HomeState.Success(stuff) }
.catch {
   emit(HomeState.Error.Unknown(it))  <- type mismatch as FlowCollector is waiting for the HomeState.Success type
}

.filterIsInstance<HomeState>()

.catch {...}

it works, but I'm wondering if there is a better way 🤔 Thanks!

.map { stuff -> HomeState.Success(stuff) as HomeState }
