rememberSaveable needs default saver [180042685]

created issue #1

Feb 11, 2021 10:33PM

Component used: Compose Version used: 1.0.0-alpha12 Devices/Android versions reproduced on: Pixel 4 Android 11

The recommended code to replace savedInstanceState{ 0 } is rememberSaveable { mutableStateOf(0) }

However, I've found this causes a crash whenever the app is minimized.

The exception thrown is

java.lang.RuntimeException: Parcel: unable to marshal value androidx.compose.runtime.SnapshotMutableStateImpl@5a847c2

After digging into the code I believe this is caused by the special version of rememberSaveable for MutableState objects doesn't have a default saver parameter so the normal version is used which doesn't know how to save a MutableState.

I think changing the rememberSaveable definition from

@Composable
fun <T> rememberSaveable(
    vararg inputs: Any?,
    stateSaver: Saver<T, out Any>,
    key: String? = null,
    init: () -> MutableState<T>
): MutableState<T> = rememberSaveable(
    inputs,
    saver = mutableStateSaver(stateSaver),
    key = key,
    init = init
)

@Composable
fun <T> rememberSaveable(
    vararg inputs: Any?,
    stateSaver: Saver<T, out Any> = autoSaver(),
    key: String? = null,
    init: () -> MutableState<T>
): MutableState<T> = rememberSaveable(
    inputs,
    saver = mutableStateSaver(stateSaver),
    key = key,
    init = init
)

would fix this.

I am also using navigation.

The provided workaround doesn't restore the mutation policy of the MutableState object.

an...@google.com <an...@google.com> #7Feb 16, 2021 05:33PM

This one will save/restore the mutation policy as well:

    fun <T> stateSaver() = listSaver<MutableState<T>, Any>(
        save = { state ->
            listOf(
                state.value ?: "null",
                when ((state as SnapshotMutableState).policy) {
                    structuralEqualityPolicy<T>() -> 0
                    referentialEqualityPolicy<T>() -> 1
                    neverEqualPolicy<T>() -> 2
                    else -> throw IllegalStateException("Mutation policy is not supported")
                }
            )
        },
        restore = {
            val value = it[0]
            val policy = when (it[1]) {
                0 -> structuralEqualityPolicy<T>()
                1 -> referentialEqualityPolicy<T>()
                else -> neverEqualPolicy<T>()
            }
            @Suppress("UNCHECKED_CAST")
            mutableStateOf((if (value == "null") null else value) as T, policy)
        }
    )

co...@gmail.com <co...@gmail.com> #8Feb 17, 2021 03:48PM

What did you think of my solution that uses the init() function passed to the rememberSaveable()? This prevents needing to save anything about the policy and would support any mutation policy.

I'm not sure if the docs say anywhere that the init() function will only be called the first time and using it to restore the state would be incorrect.

I've been using my workaround fairly extensively and it has been great.

Yes, this also works. Feel free to use it until we provide the correct fix in the library

Fix for broken rememberSaveable { mutableStateOf(0) } with navigation-compose

Previously we were converting MutableState into a parcelable structure only for a direct child of the saving list. It was incorrect as SaveableStateHolder used in navigation is wrapping the state of the screen as a value into a Map. Now we will recursively iterate through List/Maps and covert all inner MutableState objects.

ParcelableSnapshotMutableState is Parcelable, not sure how it is possible that it can't be written to Parcel.

If you can file a new bug with the reproducible code sample we will be able to take a look

Color is not automatically saveable, you need to write a custom Saver which will convert it to primitive and then back

Related to this issue, it would be useful to give more details in the log message, because when, for example, the object is a Set we have no idea what is the underlying type (the type of the items stored in the Set) and so have no idea where to look in the code:
