Part of my 2nd blog post on architecture components and MVVM

MainActivityNew.java

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @Inject
    ViewModelProvider.Factory mViewModelFactory;
    // Other fields

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        // Get the reference of Dagger component from our IssuesApplication class. 
        // This is required by Dagger for field injection.
        ((IssuesApplication) getApplication()).getAppComponent().inject(this);
        // Pass the injected instance of ViewModelFactory
        mViewModel = ViewModelProviders.of(this, mViewModelFactory).get(ListIssuesViewModel.class);
        
        // other code remains unchanged ...
    }
}
