Hey @chrisjenx , I am using your calligraphy library for my app and seems like it crashes right on app launch for Android Q. I have seen other people complain about this lately aswell. I have the latest version of your lib 2.3.0 and still face this issue. Any update if you are aware of this or if I need to do anything on my end to sort this out? Here's the crash report: Caused by: android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #17 in com.myapp.dev:layout/abc_screen_simple: Binary XML file line #17 in com.myapp.dev:layout/abc_screen_simple: Error inflating class android.support.v7.widget.FitWindowsLinearLayout Caused by: android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #17 in commyapp.dev:layout/abc_screen_simple: Error inflating class android.support.v7.widget.FitWindowsLinearLayout Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'java.lang.Object java.lang.reflect.Field.get(java.lang.Object)' on a null object reference at uk.co.chrisjenx.calligraphy.ReflectionUtils.getValue(ReflectionUtils.java:29) at uk.co.chrisjenx.calligraphy.CalligraphyLayoutInflater.createCustomViewInternal(CalligraphyLayoutInflater.java:203) at uk.co.chrisjenx.calligraphy.CalligraphyLayoutInflater.access$000(CalligraphyLayoutInflater.java:20) at uk.co.chrisjenx.calligraphy.CalligraphyLayoutInflater$PrivateWrapperFactory2.onCreateView(CalligraphyLayoutInflater.java:302) at android.view.LayoutInflater$FactoryMerger.onCreateView(LayoutInflater.java:239) at android.view.LayoutInflater.tryCreateView(LayoutInflater.java:1069) at android.view.LayoutInflater.createViewFromTag(LayoutInflater.java:997) at android.view.LayoutInflater.createViewFromTag(LayoutInflater.java:961) at android.view.LayoutInflater.inflate(LayoutInflater.java:659) at uk.co.chrisjenx.calligraphy.CalligraphyLayoutInflater.inflate(CalligraphyLayoutInflater.java:60) at android.view.LayoutInflater.inflate(LayoutInflater.java:534) at android.view.LayoutInflater.inflate(LayoutInflater.java:481) at android.support.v7.app.AppCompatDelegateImpl.createSubDecor(AppCompatDelegateImpl.java:631) at android.support.v7.app.AppCompatDelegateImpl.ensureSubDecor(AppCompatDelegateImpl.java:518) at android.support.v7.app.AppCompatDelegateImpl.setContentView(AppCompatDelegateImpl.java:466) at android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity.setContentView(AppCompatActivity.java:140) at com.myapp.dev.ui.splash.SplashActivity.onCreate(SplashActivity.java:36) at android.app.Activity.performCreate(Activity.java:7802) at android.app.Activity.performCreate(Activity.java:7791) at android.app.Instrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(Instrumentation.java:1299) at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:3245) at android.app.ActivityThread.handleLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:3409) at android.app.servertransaction.LaunchActivityItem.execute(LaunchActivityItem.java:83)
