It is only for the Android project, you need to setup the Init in your Android app

[cristiandaulisio]

CrossCurrentActivity.Current.Init(this); I wrote it in Android application. Is it possible that it is not accessible from pcl project?

[jamesmontemagno]

That is what needs to be in your Android application or activity yes it is not accessible from anything but Android projects

[jamesmontemagno]

if you are using 2.0 of current activity plugin you must use the beta version of this plugin.

[cristiandaulisio]

I'm just updated at 2.0.0, but still not work.. i simply add: CrossCurrentActivity.Current.Init(this); in Application but CrossCurrentActivity.Current.Activity is always null and i receive this exception: Current Context/Activity is null, ensure that the MainApplication.cs file is setting the CurrentActivity in your source code so the In App Billing can use it. Now i am in Android project.

[jamesmontemagno]

can you try version 2.0 as it is compiled against this dependency.

[cristiandaulisio]

I am using CurrentActivity 2.1.0.2 and InappBilling 2.0.0

[jamesmontemagno]

Still getting the same thing? Try putting it in the main activity perhaps.

[cristiandaulisio]

I tried and nothing.. don't know if it is normal but if i check in debug mode i see that Activity is always null: https://i.imgur.com/VdT7JYw.png

Another info is that i am using MvvmCross framework.

[jamesmontemagno]

When and where are you calling: PurchaseAsync ? I havent' had any problems with this at all.

It wont be filled in until a lifecycle event happens so adding a breakpoint there should be null

[cristiandaulisio]

I create a class inside the android project that i call from mainactivity. I call first: var purchase = await _billingObject.PurchaseAsync(productId, ItemType.InAppPurchase, _payload); and work fine. After i call: var consuption = await _billingObject.ConsumePurchaseAsync(purchase.ProductId, purchase.PurchaseToken); and here it throw that exception.

[jamesmontemagno]

In the OnCreate?

I don't set it yet, so it would be null..

Try the 2.1.0.4-beta of current activity as I refactored it a bit.

[cristiandaulisio]

I'm calling from NavigationMenu, but i will try 2.1.0.4 when it is available on nuget

[cristiandaulisio]

Just tried..nothing changed with 2.1.0.4 beta What can i do to help you? can i debug something? Another info for you is that if i call: var consuption = await _billingObject.ConsumePurchaseAsync(purchase.ProductId, purchase.PurchaseToken); after purchaseasync it throw exception but if i call it direclty it work and consume.

[cristiandaulisio]

update: i downgraded currentactivity at version 1.0.1 and now it work! Something wrong in 2.x?

I have exactly the same issue. After the call to Init(app, bundle), the activity is null. Downgrading to 1.01 also fixed the issue (and I set the activity manually using (Android.App.Activity)Forms.Context;
