I'm using Kotlin and have spent an hour to find the bugs with this code.

var viewPager: ViewPager = view.findViewById(R.id.viewPager)

adapter = TabAdapter(fragmentManager!!)
adapter.addFragment(Fragment1(), "Fragment 1")
adapter.addFragment(Fragment2(), "Fragment 2")

viewPager.adapter = adapter

tabLayout.setupWithViewPager(viewpager)

I can compile this with no error, but the tab title is not showing until I realize the viewpager I assigned to the tabLayout is not viewPager (notice the capitalize 'P'). It's not producing error because kotlin will find any matching layout id, in this case "viewpager" which is a ViewPager but on another view.
