Why does the constructor fire every time the ViewModel is connected?

Question

Android

Either I missed something, or ...

I decided to try, I created the class SharedModel extends ViewModel
Inside a couple of livdata fields and a few simple ones, like

private int mGameMode;
    private int mGameLevel;

Then I call in the activity and fragments

mSharedModel = new ViewModelProvider(this).get(SharedModel.class);

In one fragment I set the mGameMode field, in the second one mGameLevel, in the third one I turn ... they have zeros. Brought to the log, wherever the set is made, the constructor is called. It should exist outside of fragments and activities... What's wrong?

Answer 1

Because in fragments, instead of this, you need to pass getactivity ()
