Cannot use 'VM' as reified type parameter. Use a class instead

Question

So previously this code was working fine (2.0.1).

abstract class ActivityBaseViewModel<out VM : ViewModel>(clazz: KClass<VM>) : AppCompatActivity() {

    protected val viewModel: VM by viewModel(clazz)

Then I updated Koin to 2.2.2 and now it can't compile this code:

Cannot use 'VM' as reified type parameter. Use a class instead.

Answer 1

Seems there is no alternative function like this anymore.

So another solution would be like this:

base view model activity (or fragment)

abstract class ActivityBaseViewModel<out VM : ViewModel> : AppCompatActivity() {

    protected abstract val viewModel: VM

    ...
}

and then in a specific activity (or fragment):

class MainActivity : ActivityBaseViewModel<MainActivityViewModel>() {

    override val viewModel: MainActivityViewModel by viewModel()
    
    ...
}
