Intents in Kotlin

Issue

So, I know that in Java we use this to launch new Activity

Intent intent = new Intent(this, SomeActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);

But I'm writting a project using Kotlin, so in Kotlin it's like

val intent = Intent(this,SomeActivity::class.java)
startActivity(intent)

But it crashes with problem

Solution

Ensure you have (question mark):

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
}

Instead:

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
}
