Does the automatic saved state population of navigation arguments only work with HiltViewModel or is it also populated when using Koin for instance? Or do I need to use hiltNavGraphViewModel? (as shown here:

)

SavedStateViewModelFactory is the default factory used when using by viewModel()
You can use it without Hilt

Ah thanks! Exactly what I was looking for. It says "when using by navGraphViewModels()"

[André Thiele]

will try this out

[Vipulyaara]

That’s in the non-compose world I think. Compose uses by viewModel()

[Vipulyaara]

But it should work the same way

[André Thiele]

Ah true, thanks for the info

mhm, does not really work

when using by viewModel()

when using = get() in parameter

[André Thiele]

sooo the normal way does not work for me: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.Object cannot be cast to androidx.lifecycle.ViewModel

getStateViewModel actually works but the id is not passed in

I'd have a problem with new viewmodel instance creatIon instead of return existing one when use Compose Navigation. Same with Hilt as with Koin.

[André Thiele]

what do you mean?

[Ian Lake]

That stack trace indicates that you are using the default factory and not a factory that knows anything about Koin. Have you looked at the Koin docs? https://insert-koin.io/docs/reference/koin-android/compose/#viewmodel-for-composable
