FATAL EXCEPTION : NoSuchMethodError: No virtual method inset(IIII)Landroid/view/WindowInsets

Question

In my app I use this method to detect the keyboard on screen. It works perfectly on api 28+ But once I go below api 28 it starts to cause crashes.

  private fun isKeyboardOpen() {
   window?.decorView?.setOnApplyWindowInsetsListener { v, insets ->
       val systemWindowInsets = insets.inset(0,0,0,200)
        imeVisible = ViewCompat.getRootWindowInsets(requireView())?.getInsets(ime())
        if(imeVisible != null){
            if(imeVisible?.bottom!! > 0){
                ivWeatherIcon1.visibility = View.INVISIBLE
            } else {
                ivWeatherIcon1.visibility = View.VISIBLE
            }
        }
       systemWindowInsets
    }
}

Is there a way to make this method work back to api 23?

Obviously, keyboard appearance support does not support api <28 yet, so until backward compatibility for getInsets (ime ()) is released - you can use the following code:

private fun isKeyboardOpen() {
        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.P) {
            // your code above
        } else {
            // code from source below
        }
    }
