How get rid from App getting crashed on launch?-CodePudding

Crashing app when launching, Update Gradle plugin 4.x.x to 7.0.4 and Migrate Dagger2 to Hilt. And update Kotlin to 1.6.0. Added @@HiltAndroidApp on the Application class. Apply Multidex but not working. Try some other solutions but not helped.

Please see the log.

After update gradle, kotlin and add hilt into root-level Gradle:

buildscript {
    ext{
        kotlin_version = "1.6.0"
        apollo_version = '2.5.10'
    }

    repositories {
        google()
        jcenter()
        mavenCentral()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.0.4'
        classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
        classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.10'
        classpath 'com.google.firebase:firebase-crashlytics-gradle:2.8.1'
        classpath 'com.google.dagger:hilt-android-gradle-plugin:2.40.5'
        classpath "com.apollographql.apollo:apollo-gradle-plugin:$apollo_version"
    }
}

allprojects {

    repositories {
        google()
        jcenter()
        maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
    }

}

task clean(type: Delete) {
    delete rootProject.buildDir
}

Here is the Application class:

@HiltAndroidApp
class BaseApplication : Application(), LifecycleObserver {
    private val TAG = "BaseApplication"
    companion object {
        lateinit var instance: BaseApplication
            private set
    }

    override fun attachBaseContext(base: Context?) {
//        MultiDex.install(base)
        super.attachBaseContext(base)
    }
    override fun onCreate() {
        ActivityLifecycleCallback.register(this)
        super.onCreate()
        instance = this
        userAgent = Util.getUserAgent(this, "AdaptiveExoplayer")
        FirebaseCrashlytics.getInstance().setCrashlyticsCollectionEnabled(!BuildConfig.DEBUG)

        ProcessLifecycleOwner.get()
            .lifecycle
            .addObserver(this)
    }
}

Here is the <application> tag of AndroidManifest.xml

<application
    android:name=".base.BaseApplication"
    android:allowBackup="false"
    android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true"
    android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
    android:supportsRtl="true"
    android:networkSecurityConfig="@xml/network_config"
    android:largeHeap="true"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme"
    android:usesCleartextTraffic="true">

Most of the solutions say to add Multidex or clean and rebuild project or invalidate cache and restart. Try most of the solutions but didn't help.

CodePudding user response：

Try changing your manifest from:

android:name=".base.BaseApplication"

to:

android:name="tech.xyz.android.base.BaseApplication"

CodePudding user response：

The problem was in my module-level gradle file. I was used annotationProcessor instead of kapt.

annotationProcessor 'com.google.dagger:hilt-compiler:2.40.5'

Then changed it into

kapt 'com.google.dagger:hilt-compiler:2.40.5'
