java.lang.ClassCastException: android.net.Uri$HierarchicalUri cannot be cast to java.lang.String

I think this is happening because of the kotlin compiler.

val paths = data?.getStringArrayListExtra(KEY_SELECTED_MEDIA) ?: ArrayList()
paths.forEach { // it becomes String as `getStringArrayListExtra` is meant to return a String array
   val uploadable = File((it as? Uri)?.path)
   publishFragmentViewModel.uploadableFiles.value?.add(uploadable)
}

I guess it's forcefully defining the ArrayList type to be a String and I'm getting

I'm really sorry. I should've explained how I solved this.

val paths = data?.getParcelableArrayListExtra<Uri>(KEY_SELECTED_MEDIA)

I was casting the ArrayList elements into String on the question. But they were actually Uri objects. @RageshAntony
