How to migrate to Hilt from an older API?

To migrate to Hilt from an older Dependency Injection API in Android, you'll need to follow these steps:

  1. Remove the old dependency injection library from your project.
  2. Add Hilt dependencies to your project.
  3. Annotate your Application class with `@HiltAndroidApp`.
  4. Inject dependencies using `@Inject` in your Activities, Fragments, or ViewModels.
  5. Use the `@Module` and `@InstallIn` annotations to create and provide instances of your dependencies.

Here’s a simple example of how to set up Hilt in your Android application:

// Step 1: Add Hilt dependencies in your build.gradle dependencies { implementation "com.google.dagger:hilt-android:2.x" kapt "com.google.dagger:hilt-android-compiler:2.x" } // Step 2: Create your Application class @HiltAndroidApp class MyApplication : Application() // Step 3: Injecting dependencies @AndroidEntryPoint class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() { @Inject lateinit var myDependency: MyDependency override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState) setContentView(R.layout.activity_main) } }
