Issue with Resetting MainPage in .NET MAUI
Closed this issue · 2 comments
First of all, I would like to thank you for developing and sharing SimpleToolkit. I have found it to be a very useful tool for .NET MAUI development.
I am encountering an issue when trying to reset the navigation in my application. The flow of my application is as follows:
- The user logs in from a login page.
- Once authenticated, the user is redirected to a page with a TabBar.
- When the user logs out, I attempt to reset the navigation so that the application returns to the login page.
To achieve this, I am using the following code in the logout method:
Application.Current.MainPage = new AppShell();
The problem occurs when I try to execute this line from another screen (for example, from a settings page or a main page). My intention is to completely reset the navigation and clear the history so that the user returns to the login screen without any trace of the previous session.
However, when executing Application.Current.MainPage = new AppShell();, I am encountering the following error:
**Java.Lang.IllegalStateException:** 'The specified child already has a parent. You must call removeView() on the child's parent first.'
**Java.Lang.IllegalStateException:** 'The specified child already has a parent. You must call removeView() on the child's parent first.'
