Using the library in a project with dagger hilt that is using by viewModels delegation(Or probably other forms of ViewModel initialisation) and in one of its injected dependencies using @ApplicationContext annotated context causes a crash when a language set call is made.
here is the stack trace:

this is mainly because of the wrapped context which is returned in the overridden getApplicationContext() call inside the application class. The library is returning an instance of LocalizationContextwhich hilt has difficulties casting it to an Application class in the module below:
/** Provides a binding for an Android BinderFragment Context. */
@Module
@InstallIn(SingletonComponent.class)
public final class ApplicationContextModule {
private final Context applicationContext;
public ApplicationContextModule(Context applicationContext) {
this.applicationContext = applicationContext;
}
@Provides
@ApplicationContext
Context provideContext() {
return applicationContext;
}
@Provides
Application provideApplication() {
return (Application) applicationContext.getApplicationContext();
}
}
Which is picked from Hilt's source codes. The crash happens on line return (Application) applicationContext.getApplicationContext();
