An example. In our ViewModelFactory (that implements ViewModelProvider.Factory) we have an instance of our Repository, named mRepository. Our ViewModel has such constructor:

class MyViewModel(private val mRepository: MyRepository) : ViewModel() ...

Next, in our ViewModelFactory create ViewModel method (overriden) looks like this:

override fun create(modelClass: Class): T {

return try {

//MISSED RETURN VALUE HERE”

} catch (e: InstantiationException) {

throw RuntimeException("Cannot create an instance of $modelClass", e)

} catch (e: IllegalAccessException) {

throw RuntimeException("Cannot create an instance of $modelClass", e)

} catch (e: NoSuchMethodException) {

throw RuntimeException("Cannot create an instance of $modelClass", e)

} catch (e: InvocationTargetException) {

throw RuntimeException("Cannot create an instance of $modelClass", e)

}

}

What should we write instead of “//MISSED RETURN VALUE HERE”?
