SavedStateViewModelFactory constructed with empty constructor supports only calls to create(modelClass: Class<T>, extras: CreationExtras)

I am getting SavedStateViewModelFactory constructed with empty constructor supports only calls to create(modelClass: Class, extras: CreationExtras) errors when createBiometricPrompt() is called in the code below:

@HiltAndroidApp
class MyApplication : Application() {

    override fun onCreate() {
        super.onCreate()

        // Logging
        Timber.plant(Timber.DebugTree())
    }
}

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)

        WindowCompat.setDecorFitsSystemWindows(window, false)
        setContent {

    }

                            }
                        }

fun createBiometricPrompt(
        activity: FragmentActivity,
        onSuccess: (BiometricPrompt.AuthenticationResult) -> Unit
    ): BiometricPrompt {
        val executor = ContextCompat.getMainExecutor(activity)

        val callback = object : BiometricPrompt.AuthenticationCallback() {
            override fun onAuthenticationError(errCode: Int, errString: CharSequence) {

    id("com.mikepenz.aboutlibraries.plugin") version "10.0.0-b08"

    // other dependencies...


    implementation("com.google.dagger:hilt-android:2.40.5")
    kapt("com.google.dagger:hilt-compiler:2.40.5}")
    kapt("androidx.hilt:hilt-compiler:1.0.0")
    implementation("androidx.hilt:hilt-lifecycle-viewmodel:1.0.0-alpha03")
    implementation("androidx.hilt:hilt-navigation-compose:1.0.0")

    // other dependencies...
}

The error occurs also when creating an instance of AuthViewModel in MainActivity and passing it down as a parameter to Navigation() (instead of using hiltViewModel())

private val authViewModel by viewModels<AuthViewModel>()

Can’t seem to figure this one out. What step can I take to find the source of the issue? Any pointer is appreciated, thanks!

Hey - Wanted to share an update that a change in androidx is going to fix this issue and if all goes well, it will be available in a future alpha version of androidx’s activity, fragment and viewmodel-savedstate artifacts.

[TylerMcCraw]

Just wanted to update anyone listening out here. The latest alpha versions (updated March 23) of the relevant androidx libraries fix this particular issue for me 🎉
