IllegalArgumentException: navigation destination xxx is unknown to this NavController

Question

I am having issue with the new Android Navigation Architecture component when I try to navigate from one Fragment to another, I get this weird error:

Answer 1

Today

def navigationVersion = "2.2.1"

The issue still exists. My approach on Kotlin is:

// To avoid "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: navigation destination is unknown to this NavController", se more https://stackoverflow.com/q/51060762/6352712
fun NavController.navigateSafe(
    @IdRes destinationId: Int,
    navDirection: NavDirections,
    callBeforeNavigate: () -> Unit
) {
    if (currentDestination?.id == destinationId) {
        callBeforeNavigate()
        navigate(navDirection)
    }
}

fun NavController.navigateSafe(@IdRes destinationId: Int, navDirection: NavDirections) {
    if (currentDestination?.id == destinationId) {
        navigate(navDirection)
    }
}
