Getting error : java.lang.NullPointerException

[Boubaker93]

Hello, In my last version of my app i upgraded react-native-app-tour from version 0.0.19 to version 1.0.2 and i started getting this error in my deployed version java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.content.res.Resources$Theme android.content.Context.getTheme().

Here is the a full stacktrace of the error :

Fatal Exception: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.content.res.Resources$Theme android.content.Context.getTheme()' on a null object reference

Here is an exemple how i'm using the lib in my code :

<TouchableOpacity
         disabled
         key='example'
         ref={ref => {
             if (!ref) return
             const props = tutorialProps. example
             if (addAppTourTarget) {
                 addAppTourTarget(AppTourView.for(ref, { ...props }))
             }
         }}>
         <MyComponent />
</TouchableOpacity>

Then in my app.js i use this once my appTourTargets have the length i want it :

    if (appTourTargets.length === length) {
        const appTourSequence = new AppTourSequence()
        appTourTargets.forEach(appTourTarget => {
            appTourSequence.add(appTourTarget)
        })
        AppTour.ShowSequence(appTourSequence)
    }

I'm using using react-native: 0.61.5

Thanks for your help

Thanks @Boubaker93 for raising the issue.

Considering you are using latest RN, could you try it with latest version of the library 1.*

Let me know incase it does not work.

Thanks </ Pranav >

same issue. i use RN 0.61.5 and app-tour version 1.0.2 but got same error

@Boubaker93 i have a solution (but not good solution, just for running away from this issue :) ) run this command " gradlew assembleRelease -x lintVitalRelease " it works. this library should debug. thank @prscX

[Boubaker93]

@Eesssn will try that out but as you said the best solution :D
