由于 NPE 恢复活动时崩溃

Question

I've observed some crashes among the users of my app which is related to a configuration change and the Activity being recreated, I was not able to reproduce it. The issue seems to be inside the Android classes and therefore there's no chance for me to fix it directly.

Fatal Exception: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to read from field 'float android.content.res.Configuration.fontScale' on a null object reference
       at android.content.res.Configuration.setTo + 904(Configuration.java:904)

Since I'm not able to recreate it, opening a bug report on Goggle issuetracker would be pretty useless. Does anyone have a clue on what's happening here? Has anyone encountered this before?

There is clearly a bug because the ActivityThread#createNewConfigAndUpdateIfNotNull(Configuration, Configuration) method, which is responsible for passing a null value to Configuration#setTo(Configuration) has its first parameter annotated as @NonNull .

The crashed happened mainly on Android 7.1.1, the app targets SDK 28.

Answer 1

此问题仅在 android 7.0 及更高版本中发生...当应用程序在夜间模式下创建并且屏幕旋转（配置更改）时，这可能是 DayNight 主题中的错误。

Answer 2

I have this issue too on android 7.1 but i find out my activity created twice because setTheme(R.style.custom_style) called after super.onCreate(savedInstanceState) when fix this issue crash not happened anymore on configuration changes

hope this help

Answer 3

I did a lot of research on this problem and I noticed that this problem only occurs in Android 7 and in the DayNight theme. To solve this problem, you can not use the DayNight theme in Android 7, such as the following code:

 if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT==Build.VERSION_CODES.N||Build.VERSION.SDK_INT==Build.VERSION_CODES.N_MR1){
            AppCompatDelegate.setDefaultNightMode(AppCompatDelegate.MODE_NIGHT_YES);
        }

My problem was solved by adding the above code I hope this solution has been helpful.
