java.lang.ClassCastException: android.app.ContextImpl in version 1.2.7

[jonas-weinhardt]

I have a simple App with just 2 Activities. One Is the Main Activity and the other is an Activity where the user can change the language. It gets opened when the user clicks a button on the Main Activity. Both Activities inherit from LocalizationActivity. After the language gets changed the LanguageChange Activity gets finished to return to the Main Activity.

setLanguage("en");
finish();

Than the onResume function in the MainActivity gets triggered where I try to convert the Application Context to my Application class (witch inherits from LocalizationApplication):

@Override
protected void onResume() {
    super.onResume();
     App app = (App)getApplicationContext(); <-- java.lang.ClassCastException occures here 
}

Is there a way to get the right context at this point or am i doing something wrong? Everything works by the way in version 1.2.6

If you want to access any method in application class. You can cast the class from getApplication() not getApplicationContext()

Java

@Override
protected void onResume() {
    super.onResume();
    App app = (App)getApplication();
}

Kotlin

override fun onResume() {
    super.onResume()
    val app: App = application as App
}

@jonas-weinhardt Are you using the LocalizationActivityDelegate? I'm so sorry because I forget to put the override fun getResources(): Resources in README.md.

For the application delegation you need to add getResources(): Resources as override method as below

// CustomLocalizationApplication.kt
override fun getResources(): Resources {
    return localizationDelegate.getResources(this)
}
