Can I wrap collectAsState with remember when I use Jetpack Compose? - kotlin

Question

I hope to share a parameter val isCanAddRecord by mViewMode.isCanAddRecord.collectAsState() among #Composable functions.
The Code A is based the article How can I share info among #Composable function in Android Studio?
I know collectAsState() is wrapped with remember, you can see the Source Code.
Now you will find the object watchState is wrapped with remember, and watchState.isCanAddRecord which is assiged to mViewMode.isCanAddRecord.collectAsState() is wrapped with remember again.
Will the Code A cause error?
Code A
#Composable
fun ScreenHome_Watch(
modifier: Modifier = Modifier,
mViewMode: SoundViewModel,
watchState:WatchState = rememberWatchState(mViewMode)
){
...
}
class WatchState(
val isCanAddRecord: State<Boolean>,
...
){
...
}
#Composable
fun rememberWatchState(mViewMode: SoundViewModel): WatchState {
val watchState = WatchState(mViewMode.isCanAddRecord.collectAsState())
return remember {
watchState
}
}
Source Code
#Composable
fun <T : R, R> Flow<T>.collectAsState(
initial: R,
context: CoroutineContext = EmptyCoroutineContext
): State<R> = produceState(initial, this, context) {
if (context == EmptyCoroutineContext) {
collect { value = it }
} else withContext(context) {
collect { value = it }
}
}
#Composable
fun <T> produceState(
initialValue: T,
key1: Any?,
key2: Any?,
#BuilderInference producer: suspend ProduceStateScope<T>.() -> Unit
): State<T> {
val result = remember { mutableStateOf(initialValue) }
LaunchedEffect(key1, key2) {
ProduceStateScopeImpl(result, coroutineContext).producer()
}
return result
}

Of course you can remember your mutableState or any other remember or anything that is not Composable. You can remember measurePolicy or even another code block as lambda for drawing like Modifier.drawWithCache does. Jetnews App sample does what you about. This is a matter of preference, you can store anything that is not Composable inside your remember block.
/**
* Remembers the content for each tab on the Interests screen
* gathering application data from [InterestsViewModel]
*/
#Composable
fun rememberTabContent(interestsViewModel: InterestsViewModel): List<TabContent> {
// UiState of the InterestsScreen
val uiState by interestsViewModel.uiState.collectAsState()
// Describe the screen sections here since each section needs 2 states and 1 event.
// Pass them to the stateless InterestsScreen using a tabContent.
val topicsSection = TabContent(Sections.Topics) {
val selectedTopics by interestsViewModel.selectedTopics.collectAsState()
TabWithSections(
sections = uiState.topics,
selectedTopics = selectedTopics,
onTopicSelect = { interestsViewModel.toggleTopicSelection(it) }
)
}
val peopleSection = TabContent(Sections.People) {
val selectedPeople by interestsViewModel.selectedPeople.collectAsState()
TabWithTopics(
topics = uiState.people,
selectedTopics = selectedPeople,
onTopicSelect = { interestsViewModel.togglePersonSelected(it) }
)
}
val publicationSection = TabContent(Sections.Publications) {
val selectedPublications by interestsViewModel.selectedPublications.collectAsState()
TabWithTopics(
topics = uiState.publications,
selectedTopics = selectedPublications,
onTopicSelect = { interestsViewModel.togglePublicationSelected(it) }
)
}
return listOf(topicsSection, peopleSection, publicationSection)
}
val tabContent = rememberTabContent(interestsViewModel)
val (currentSection, updateSection) = rememberSaveable {
mutableStateOf(tabContent.first().section)
}
Remember lambda
fun Modifier.drawWithCache(
onBuildDrawCache: CacheDrawScope.() -> DrawResult
) = composed(
inspectorInfo = debugInspectorInfo {
name = "drawWithCache"
properties["onBuildDrawCache"] = onBuildDrawCache
}
) {
val cacheDrawScope = remember { CacheDrawScope() }
this.then(DrawContentCacheModifier(cacheDrawScope, onBuildDrawCache))
}
Remember layout policy which is widely used with layouts
#Composable
#UiComposable
fun BoxWithConstraints(
modifier: Modifier = Modifier,
contentAlignment: Alignment = Alignment.TopStart,
propagateMinConstraints: Boolean = false,
content:
#Composable #UiComposable BoxWithConstraintsScope.() -> Unit
) {
val measurePolicy = rememberBoxMeasurePolicy(contentAlignment, propagateMinConstraints)
SubcomposeLayout(modifier) { constraints ->
val scope = BoxWithConstraintsScopeImpl(this, constraints)
val measurables = subcompose(Unit) { scope.content() }
with(measurePolicy) { measure(measurables, constraints) }
}
}
