I'm using the FirebaseRemoteConfig 2.0.1 library and now updating everything from SDK Manager does not work for me anymore.
I get an error when trying to initialize on the first line
B4X:
cfg.Initialize("Config")          
            cfg.Defaults(CreateMap("app_version": 101, "bd_com_version": 53, "publicita_ctdad": 5, "publicita_folder": "popup", "publicita_frec": 5))
            cfg.fetch(-1)

the error it gives is this >>>
B4X:
(Exception) java.lang.Exception:  java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'com.google.firebase.remoteconfig.FirebaseRemoteConfig com.google.firebase.remoteconfig.RemoteConfigComponent.get(java.lang.String)' on a null object reference


How can i fix this?

Don´t know. Never used the lib for years.
Sounds like they changed the Api in some kind.

Maybe the lib needs an Update. But if so then i need to rewrite it to 100% as i lost the source in 2017 due to a HDD Crash.

I did found the source (had a backup of this lib).

Try the attached 2-02

Hello friend DonManfred, now with the update I successfully passed the line cfg.Initialize ("Config")
and I get an error in the next one that is this >>
B4X:
(Exception) java.lang.Exception:  java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'com.google.firebase.remoteconfig.FirebaseRemoteConfig com.google.firebase.remoteconfig.RemoteConfigComponent.get(java.lang.String)' on a null object reference

Is it possible that I am creating MAP badly?

So I am using >>
B4X:
Dim M As Map
            M.Initialize
            M=CreateMap("app_version": 101, "bd_com_version": 53, "popup", "publicita_frec": 5)
            cfg.Initialize("Config")           
            cfg.setDefaults2(m,"Config")
            cfg.fetch2(1)

AFAIK is a map a combination of a keyword and the value IN ONE LINE each

it has nothing to do with his answer. I know how to use maps there is only one error in the transcripts reduced to this forum. THE ERROR EXISTS!

It seems that we are very few who use this, do not we?
Or only we have problems at least!
I had to modify my application significantly, removing an important function for not being able to access Firebase anymore. Very unfortunate

I am having this problem too. I tried the 2.02 and 2.01. I get errors elsewhere in the code. It gives an error on cfg.isInitialized -- unknown member.

The following line also gives an error:
cfg.Defaults(CreateMap("RB_Launch_Count": 3, "loading_phrase": "Hallo world!"))

Property: Defaults is writeonly.

Anyway, I get this error after commenting out the above.

java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'com.google.firebase.remoteconfig.FirebaseRemoteConfig com.google.firebase.remoteconfig.RemoteConfigComponent.get(java.lang.String)' on a null object reference

Please post the Java code. I'm no Java expert, but I will take a look.

I´ve updated the Library to v2.5

- It now includes Instructions on how to setup the Manifest to use RemoteConfig.
Google has changed the Manifestintegration. A new Snippet is needed.
I´ve added the new Snippet to the library like i had done it with Firestore (not the same but similar).

Hi DonManfred

I recently installed version B4A 10.2 beta
Before these changes, the library worked good, but now it crash with the following error.

B4X:

b4x ver 10.2 beta
lib ver 2.52
