Crash on AWSCredentialsProviderHolder.getCredentials()

[rubinbasha]

Greetings,

We have implemented the sdk in android and we currently have some random crashes with te sdk internal code. A call is made to AWSCredentialsProviderHolder.getCredentials() and it results in a NullPointerException which is not caught or handled. We can add a try catch ourselves at "com.amazonaws.mobile.user.IdentityManager$AWSCredentialsProviderHolder.getCredentials(IdentityManager.java:61)", but than we do not know what would be the consequences and what we should return in that method if the Exception happens. Please provide us with a solution or workaround for the time being.

E/AndroidRuntime: FATAL EXCEPTION: pool-4-thread-1 Process: de.rtl2apps.berlintn, PID: 11479 java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'long java.util.Date.getTime()' on a null object reference at com.amazonaws.auth.CognitoCachingCredentialsProvider.getCredentials(CognitoCachingCredentialsProvider.java:456) at com.amazonaws.mobile.user.IdentityManager$AWSCredentialsProviderHolder.getCredentials(IdentityManager.java:61) at com.amazonaws.services.pinpoint.AmazonPinpointClient.invoke(AmazonPinpointClient.java:1783) at com.amazonaws.services.pinpoint.AmazonPinpointClient.updateEndpoint(AmazonPinpointClient.java:1594) at com.amazonaws.mobileconnectors.pinpoint.targeting.TargetingClient$1.run(TargetingClient.java:173) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1133) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:607) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:761)

The issue looks like it is happening only on the first run of the application and even than it is random. To reproduce that i tried many times , install , run and than uninstall and than the same again until i would get the crash in my device.

A likely root cause synchronization issue has been identified related to this issue. We will update this issue again once the issue has been corrected.
