Only the `argType="reference"` accepts resource IDs (and returns an int that you'd pass to getContext().getString()), so it is working as intended that a "string" type is exactly what you put into your XML. It was important that the build time code gen and the runtime behavior always matches and that was not possible in the general cases - see edge cases such as https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/111736515 for some background.
Please starhttps://issuetracker.google.com/issues/36994900 to track progress towards allowing placeholders in XML files, which would be the recommended way of filling in placeholders at compile time.

Ok thanks, I understand now, I wasn't aware of argType="reference". Anyway I think it is a bit strange that behavior is different if we navigate using safe args gen code (navController.navigate(WebPageFragmentDirections.actionGlobalHomeFragment())) and code without safe args (navController.navigate(R.id.homeFragment)) if the navigation xml file is the same.
Description
Version used: 1.0.0-rc01
I recently worked on an app with package name 'in.bitotsav', and used navigation architecture component to implement a single activity structure. I had been using safeargs using
apply plugin: "androidx.navigation.safeargs"
But just now, I discovered the availability of "androidx.navigation.safeargs.kotlin", so I tried applying it. But it leads to compilation error due to the 'in' part of the package name not being escaped in the generated code, for statements like:
override fun getActionId(): Int = in.bitotsav.R.id.action_global_destEventDetail
and
fun actionDestLoginToDestRegistration(): NavDirections =
ActionOnlyNavDirections(in.bitotsav.R.id.action_destLogin_to_destRegistration)
This can be fixed if the 'in' is escaped with backticks, as:
override fun getActionId(): Int = `in`.bitotsav.R.id.action_global_destEventDetail
This is also what is done by android studio in imports.
