BottomNavigation View OnNavigationItemSelectedListener is deprecated

Question

I am trying out the Android's BottomNavigationView implementation as per Material Design

However, on the MainActivity code I am getting a warning that OnNavigationItemSelectedListener is deprecated - see the below snapshot

Have tried get an alternative method to work with the BottomNavigationView but I cannot find it.

Looking for help from anyone with a way out but in the meantime I have matched my BottomView's menu items ids with the fragment destination ids and I successfully achieved Navigation but with a limitation of not being able to update my toolbar title with the Fragment's name.

Just use the OnItemSelectedListener interface:

kotlin

bottomNavigationView?.setOnItemSelectedListener { item ->
    // do stuff

    return@setOnItemSelectedListener true
}

Java

bottomNavigationView.setOnItemSelectedListener(item -> {
    // do stuff

    return true;
});
