Crash with inflating NavHostFragment

Hi,

I am using the new Navigation Architecture for Fragment transactions. My home screen has a NavHostFragment defined in its layout.

For theming I am using the CyaneaThemePickerActivity. After picking a theme, if I press the back button to navigate back to the home screen, I get this crash. I am unable to find out what the root cause is.

Adding the stack trace below for reference,

Found the issue. We were using the NavController to switch between two NavGraph using the same NavHostFragment. The default NavGraph - nav_home is set in the onCreate of the Activity. The other NavGraph - nav_settings is set on selecting the Settings option.

The theming logic is part of the nav_settings graph. So, when cyanea restarts the Activity to apply theme, onCreate gets called and NavController sets the NavGraph back to nav_home.

The NavController then tries to find the Settings page in nav_home. Hence, the crash.

The only way around this is to store the current NavGraph id in ViewModel or savedInstanceState and use it in onCreate to set the correct NavGraph

Will close this issue now. Thanks

I also had this last one, and I would like to have a prototype of correction to solve this problem finally, an example of resolution (pseudo code) you will have already deduced it from my accent I am French-speaking ... all my excuses
