How to reflect a flow value when it gets ready after collecting?

var property: String? = null
.......

propertyFlow.collect{
    property = it
}

.......

textView.text = property // reflect this value when its get ready

Something like that, any idea?

I'm not really sure with the question, but I suppose you want your textView updated for every new emission? If so, why not move your the textView inside collect lambda then?

Because I have to use the

property

many times in multiple functions within the fragment, it's difficult for me to put all these uses inside

collect

.

One way is to use SharedFlow, there you can 'subscribe' to the flow from as many independant consumers as you want, in any time sequence. Another way, I have had success with, is much more basic, and Im not sure if this is a 'bad idea' or 'good idea' -- it does 'work for me' in the cases I considered applicable. That is to use a simple form of 'observable' -- that is not coroutine or flow based, but can be trivially hooked up to flows. Like this

typealias Observe<T> = (T)-> Unit 
typealias Observers<T> = MutableList<Observe<T>> 
fun <T> observers() = mutableListOf<Observe<T>>()
fun <T> Observers<T>.invoke(v: T) = forEach {  it(v) }
...

val observers = observers<String>()
...

// Anywhere its useful to be notified of a new value
// simply add a new 'observer'\ callback to the list 
    observers += { 
          textview.value = it 
    }

Wherever the value changes .. could be in collect() 

  wherevaluechanged(v: T ) {  observers(v) } // notify all observers

This has worked well for me as long as I consistantly guaretnee that the call to observers() is on the correct thread (main/UI thread for android) -- that can be baked into the observers(T) call if needed
