Varargs Kotlin Java interop not working properly

Question

For the makeSceneTransitionAnimation there are two static functions

public static ActivityOptionsCompat makeSceneTransitionAnimation(Activity activity,
        View sharedElement, String sharedElementName)

and

    public static ActivityOptionsCompat makeSceneTransitionAnimation(Activity activity,
        Pair<View, String>... sharedElements)

The first function call works properly in Kotlin but when calling the second one, both these calls return errors

        val imageTransition = Pair<View, String>(imageView, imageView.getTransitionName());
        val textTransition = Pair<View, String>(textView, textView.getTransitionName());
        val transitionList = Array(2, { imageTransition });
        transitionList[1] = textTransition;
        val options = ActivityOptionsCompat.makeSceneTransitionAnimation(this, *transitionList);

and

        val imageTransition = Pair<View, String>(imageView, imageView.getTransitionName());
        val textTransition = Pair<View, String>(textView, textView.getTransitionName());
        val options = ActivityOptionsCompat.makeSceneTransitionAnimation(this, imageTransition, textTransition);

Is there a proper way to get this working or is this an issue with the interop?

Edit Added change to ensure that it is using the same classes

val imageView : View = view.findViewById(android.R.id.icon);
val textView : View = view.findViewById(android.R.id.text1);
imageView.setTransitionName("imageTransition");
textView.setTransitionName("textTransition")

val imageTransition : android.support.v4.util.Pair<android.view.View, java.lang.String> = android.support.v4.util.Pair.create(imageView, imageView.getTransitionName() as java.lang.String);
val textTransition : android.support.v4.util.Pair<android.view.View, java.lang.String> = android.support.v4.util.Pair.create(textView, textView.getTransitionName() as java.lang.String);
val transitionList = Array(2, { imageTransition });
transitionList[1] = textTransition;
val options = ActivityOptionsCompat.makeSceneTransitionAnimation(this, *transitionList);

Current compiler error:

Error:(72, 84) The spread operator (*foo) may only be applied in a vararg position
Error:(72, 99) No value passed for parameter sharedElementName

And another

val imageView : View = view.findViewById(android.R.id.icon);
val textView : View = view.findViewById(android.R.id.text1);
imageView.setTransitionName("imageTransition");
textView.setTransitionName("textTransition")

val imageTransition : android.support.v4.util.Pair<android.view.View, java.lang.String> = android.support.v4.util.Pair.create(imageView, imageView.getTransitionName() as java.lang.String);
val textTransition : android.support.v4.util.Pair<android.view.View, java.lang.String> = android.support.v4.util.Pair.create(textView, textView.getTransitionName() as java.lang.String);
val options = ActivityOptionsCompat.makeSceneTransitionAnimation(this, imageTransition, textTransition);

Current compiler error:

Error:(72, 84) Type mismatch: inferred type is android.support.v4.util.Pair<android.view.View, java.lang.String> but android.view.View! was expected
Error:(72, 101) Type mismatch: inferred type is android.support.v4.util.Pair<android.view.View, java.lang.String> but kotlin.String! was expected

Answer 1

This worked for me:

import android.support.v4.util.Pair

// ...    

val options = ActivityOptionsCompat.makeSceneTransitionAnimation(activity,
        Pair<View, String>(image, image.transitionName),
        Pair<View, String>(title, title.transitionName))

startActivity(intent, options.toBundle())
