Use this scope annotation when you want to define a dependency in the {@link * dagger.hilt.android.components.ViewModelComponent} for which a single instance will be provided * across all other dependencies for a single {@link * dagger.hilt.android.lifecycle.HiltViewModel}-annotated {@code ViewModel}. Other {@code * ViewModel}s that request the scoped dependency will receive a different instance. For sharing the * same instance of a dependency across all {@code ViewModel}s use a scope from one of the parent * components of {@code dagger.hilt.android.components.ViewModelComponent}, such as {@link * javax.inject.Singleton} or {@link dagger.hilt.android.scopes.ActivityRetainedScoped}. * *

For example: * *

 * @Module
 * @InstallIn(ViewModelComponent.class)
 * public final class ViewModelMovieModule {
 *     @Provides
 *     @ViewModelScoped
 *     public static MovieRepository provideRepo(SavedStateHandle handle) {
 *         return new MovieRepository(handle.getString("movie-id"));
 *     }
 * }
 *
 * public final class MovieDetailFetcher {
 *     @Inject MovieDetailFetcher(MovieRepository movieRepo) {
 *         // ...
 *     }
 * }
 *
 * public final class MoviePosterFetcher {
 *     @Inject MoviePosterFetcher(MovieRepository movieRepo) {
 *         // ...
 *     }
 * }
 *
 * @HiltViewModel
 * public class MovieViewModel extends ViewModel {
 *     @Inject
 *     public MovieViewModel(MovieDetailFetcher detailFetcher, MoviePosterFetcher posterFetcher) {
 *         // Both detailFetcher and posterFetcher will contain the same instance of
 *         // the MovieRepository.
 *     }
 * }
