android - IllegalArgumentException: savedInstanceState Specified as Non-Null is Null

Question

I am getting a strange error when I start my MainActivity:

06-16 16:01:05.193 2083-2083/? E/AndroidRuntime: FATAL EXCEPTION: main
        Process: com.android.example.github, PID: 2083

This is my MainActivity class:

class MainActivity : LifecycleActivity(), HasSupportFragmentInjector {

    lateinit var dispatchingAndroidInjector: DispatchingAndroidInjector<Fragment>
        @Inject set

    lateinit var navigationController: NavigationController

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.main_activity)

        if (savedInstanceState == null) {
            navigationController.navigateToSearch()
        }
    }

    override fun supportFragmentInjector(): AndroidInjector<Fragment> {
        return dispatchingAndroidInjector
    }

}

The error states that the parameter savedInstanceState is null, when it is specified as non-null; but it is nullable (savedInstanceState: Bundle?) and the onCreate() method is marked as @Nullable in the source.

I have not come across this error in any of my other Kotlin projects. I am using Kotlin version 1.1.2-5; and had the same error with 1.1.2-3.

It seems like the issue isn't in the onCreate method. Try looking at com.android.example.github.injection.AppInjector$init$1.onActivityCreated(AppInjector.kt). I can't tell if it's a generated class, but it should give you an idea of what to do next.
