NullPointerException when trying to get new instance of BraintreeFragment

[MiralDesai]

A crash being reported to me:

Fatal Exception: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.os.Handler android.app.FragmentHostCallback.getHandler()' on a null object reference

Not happening on my side since this is all within one method (initialiseBraintreeFragment()) which is setup exactly as the braintree docs suggest.

Could you guys look into this? Thanks. v2.3.10 of the Braintree SDK

This is on API 24 or above correct? Can you confirm if this is being run on that main thread or a background thread?

[MiralDesai]

API 24 correct. It's being run on the main thread.

[MiralDesai]

Any updates on this?

@MiralDesai: it doesn't look like there is a fix for this, only a work around. We're reviewing the work around and will push it soon.

[MiralDesai]

Fair enough. Will look out for it.

Thanks for the report, the fix will go out in the next release.
