```kotlin
@ExperimentalComposeViewContextApi
fun View.findViewTreeComposeViewContext(): ComposeViewContext?
```


Returns the `ComposeViewContext` used in this View's part of the hierarchy, or `null` if one
cannot be found or it doesn't match the values set for `View.findViewTreeLifecycleOwner` or
`View.findViewTreeSavedStateRegistryOwner`. For example, if there is a `ComposeView` set in the
hierarchy, `findViewTreeComposeViewContext` on a child of that View will normally return that
`ComposeViewContext`. However, if the child is within a Fragment, its `LifecycleOwner` differs
from the `ComposeView`, so `findViewTreeComposeViewContext` will return `null`.

This can be used with `AbstractComposeView.createComposition` to compose without the
`ComposeView` being attached:
