How to implement `IllegalStateException` when Accessing ViewModel in Fragment Lifecycle Method with Hilt in Android 14?
I recently switched to I've been banging my head against this for hours... I am working with an `IllegalStateException` when trying to access my ViewModel inside the `onViewCreated` method of a Fragment that uses Hilt for dependency injection. Here’s a snippet of how I’m currently setting up my Fragment: ```kotlin @AndroidEntryPoint class MyFragment : Fragment() { private val myViewModel: MyViewModel by viewModels() override fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) { super.onViewCreated(view, savedInstanceState) myViewModel.getData() // This line throws IllegalStateException } } ``` The behavior I see is: `java.lang.IllegalStateException: Fragment MyFragment did not return a View from onCreateView() or this was called before onCreateView()`. I have ensured that `onCreateView` is correctly implemented and returns a non-null View: ```kotlin override fun onCreateView( inflater: LayoutInflater, container: ViewGroup?, savedInstanceState: Bundle? ): View? { return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_my, container, false) } ``` I’ve tried moving my ViewModel access to `onCreate` but it doesn’t resolve the scenario, and I also double-checked that I have the correct dependencies for Hilt in my `build.gradle`: ```groovy implementation "com.google.dagger:hilt-android:2.42" kapt "com.google.dagger:hilt-compiler:2.42" ``` This scenario doesn't occur when I use the ViewModel in an Activity instead of a Fragment. Is there a specific reason why this is happening in a Fragment with Hilt? Any insights or solutions would be appreciated. I'm working on a application that needs to handle this.
