onActivityResult is deprecated how do I send startResolutionForResult

Question

So I'm using a gps class to turn on the gps and here's a method that allow us to send to onActivityResult, but since is deprecated on AndroidX and still available, android team recommend us the next:

it is strongly recommended to use the Activity Result APIs introduced in AndroidX

I have a the following code where I try to send to onActivityResult

val rae = e as ResolvableApiException
rae.startResolutionForResult(context,Constants.GPS_REQUEST)

How do I approach the same thing with the new API?

Since I'm accessing from a custom class that is "far from activity", I do need to make variable launcher public, access to activity variable, and then call it, is that a good practice? — Barrufet, Dec 15 '20 at 09:06

What I did in Kotlin was:

registerForActivityResult(StartIntentSenderForResult()) { result ->
    if (result.resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
        // Your logic
    }
}.launch(IntentSenderRequest.Builder(rae.resolution).build())

ResolvableApiException is not deprecated, onActivityResult is: [here says that is better to use a different approach developer](https://developer.android.com/training/basics/intents/result) – Barrufet Dec 15 '20 at 09:16
