Error with Lollipop - Resolved

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

I ran into the following error (see attached for full stack):

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: in == null
    at java.util.Properties.load(Properties.java:246)
    at com.google.code.rome.android.repackaged.com.sun.syndication.io.impl.PropertiesLoader.<init>(PropertiesLoader.java:74)

I resolved this by using the same workaround as described in this wiki for pre 
2.2:

https://android-rome-feed-reader.googlecode.com/svn-history/r132/wiki/Android21A
ndEarlierWorkaround.wiki

Specifically, I added the following to my doInBackground onPreExecute:

    Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(getClass().getClassLoader());

Note this was tested specifically with a Samsung Galaxy S6 running stock 5.0.2

Hi Brian could you please explain better where to place that piece of code? i'm 
experiencing this issue on my application on Samsung devices updatet to 
lollipop.

Hi, I just did exactly what I specified, put it in the onPreExecute, since I'm 
running the actual check in a separate thread. Just make sure you execute that 
line of code somewhere before querying.

Note I tested my app before the fix on my Nexus 9 and it did not have the same 
issue. May be a regression in 5.0.2 lollipop.
