how to emit value from built flow object

Question

My question is that how we can emit a value from a built flow object like this:

class Sample {
    var flow: Flow<Object> = null

    fun sendRequest(){
       flow = flow{}
       requestWrapper.flowResponse = flow

    }

    fun getResponse(){
       // I want to emit data here with built flow object on 
       // requestWrapper like this

        requestWrapper.flowResponse.emit()

    }
}

is any possible solution for this issue?

You can use MutableSharedFlow to emit values like in your case:

class Sample {
    var flow: MutableSharedFlow<Object>? = MutableSharedFlow(...)

    fun sendRequest(){
       requestWrapper.flowResponse = flow
    }

    fun getResponse(){
       // I want to emit data here with built flow object on 
       // requestWrapper like this

        requestWrapper.flowResponse?.tryEmit(...)

    }
}
