android - Start intent from a BottomSheet fragment

Question

Im currently working on an app, that has a BottomSheet as a menu. The objective of this menu is to start intents depending on the item selected. I tried starting an Intent like below, however Android Studio says:

None of the following functions can be called with the arguments supplied.

• (Context!, Class<*>!) defined in android.content.Intent

• (String!, Uri!) defined in android.content.Intent

What am i doing wrong? Is there a better way to start an Intent from a class?

frgBottomSheetDrawer.kt

override fun onCreateView(inflater: LayoutInflater, container: ViewGroup?, savedInstanceState: Bundle?): View? {
        super.onCreateView(inflater, container, savedInstanceState)

        navDrawer.setNavigationItemSelectedListener { menuItem ->
            when (menuItem!!.itemId) {
                R.id.ndListFolder -> Intent(this, ndActFolder::class.java).also {
                    startActivity(it) 
                }
                R.id.ndListSettings -> Intent(this, ndActSettings::class.java).also {
                    startActivity(it) 
                }
                true
            }
        }

        return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_bottomsheet, container, false)
    }

Answer 1

I found a clean solution.

We can write a cleaner Intent line:

this.startActivity(Intent(activity, actAbout::class.java))

In case you need the activity normally, we can write:

new intent = Intent(activity, actAbout::class.java))
startActivity(intent)
