sumup cordova plugin crashes with an inflateexception when opening the login activity

[ambroseadamson]

I am currently developing a cordova plugin wrapper of the sumup android sdk so that we can support the sumup card reader payments in our ionic/angular app.

every time when attempt to perform a transparent login with via an access token the app crashes on the following error:

Hello,

I have created a ticket for our product team to take a look into this issue.

Once we deploy a fix, I will update you immediately.

@Mike-Lopez I was able to fix the issue. I found the issue was due to build.gradle file in my cordova plugin where I was targeting API 29 in my plugin, but the following build.gradle fragment:

configurations.all { resolutionStrategy { force 'com.android.support:support-v4:26.1.0' force 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.1.0' force 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:26.1.0' force 'com.android.support:design:26.1.0' } } }

was resulting in calls to TintTypedArray.getFont in API 26 that were incompatible. removing this fragment and changing the dependencies to :

dependencies { implementation 'com.android.support:support-v4:28.0.0' implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0' implementation 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:28.0.0' implementation 'com.android.support:design:28.8.0 ' implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:16.0.0'

implementation 'com.sumup:merchant-sdk:3.2.2'

}

fixed the issue.
