Hi. I'm using Android Studio Chipmunk. I can't call `viewModel()`in a `@Composable`parameter, though I've added the dependency androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-viewmodel-compose:2.5.0 to build.gradle file of the app module. Why ?
(I keep getting the error "Expression 'viewModel' of type 'StockfishLibraryViewModel' cannot be invoked as a function. The function 'invoke()' is not found")

This is the viewModel I'm trying to use.

StockfishLibraryViewModel.kt.cpp

Show your code where you are using viewModel()

This is the whole file

You haven't imported the viewModel() function: import androidx.lifecycle.viewmodel.compose.viewModel

[loloof64]

This is the build file.

build.gradle (app module).groovy

Thank you very much 🙂

[Ian Lake]

So it thinks you are calling the invoke() method on your variable named viewModel when you add the parentheses after the variable name

[Ian Lake]

The easiest way to figure that out is to rename that variable

Ok, I understand better 🙂

Next time I'll start with a different name than viewModel for my parameter 🙂
