As ViewModelProviders.of() is deprecated, how should I create object of ViewModel in the Activity?

Question

error: cannot find symbol
        MainActivityViewModel model = ViewModelProvider(this).get(MainActivityViewModel.class);

I tried different solutions available but no luck for me.

Adding the new keyword worked for me. MainActivityViewModel model = new ViewModelProvider(this).get(MainActivityViewModel.class); — sayed neiman, Nov 07 '22 at 05:40

You can create a view model using the by ViewModels() kotlin property delegate:

private val viewModel: YourCustomViewModel by viewModels()

or you can use ViewModelProvider to create ViewModels and retain them in a store of the given ViewModelStoreOwner.
