I have getting error while fetching boolean value in kotlin

val isAutoStart : Boolean? = PrefInstance.get(context)?.get(Constants.PREF_SERVICE_IS_ALERT,Boolean::class.java ,false)

Error Log

java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.Boolean cannot be cast to java.lang.String

@pranavlathigara Fix is simple: just use Boolean::class.javaObjectType instead of Boolean::class.java and you should be set.
