I have a value from the other activity that I want to haul as the new value of my layout text:

val txt:String = intent.getStringExtra("resultval").toString()

The XML part looks like this:

              <TextView
                    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:id = "@+id/prNumberId"
                    android:text = "PR Number"
                    android:textColor="@color/black"
                    android:textSize = "20sp"
                    android:textStyle = "bold"/>

Now, I want to change the text “PR Number” into something like “PR7438927438927”. How would I do that? Using this:

findViewById<Text>(R.id.prNumberId).replaceWholeText(txt)

or using:
findViewById<Text>(R.id.prNumberId).textContent = txt

throws me an error saying: Type Argument is not within its bounds.

How can I assign the value of the prNumberId with the new variable I have?

Thank you.

I tried changing the values through the findByViewId and textContent but it doesn’t work as it says there is a type argument not within its bounds. It does not accept the R.id.prNumberId as Text.
