Android Question [SOLVED] I got a strange error with BCToast

[bsnqt]

I can customize and use the BCToast quite successfully. But everytime when my app goes to the background (paused) then comes back, I could not show the toast again. I don't know what is wrong here?

Here is the error:

(NullPointerException) java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'void anywheresoftware.b4a.objects.B4XViewWrapper.setColor(int)
on a null object reference

My code:

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    If FirstTime Then
        bctoast.Initialize(toastPanel)    ' toastPanel is the toast parent view
    End If
End Sub   

Sub ShowBCToast(message As String, fontcolor As String, backgrcolor As Int)
    ' Example for the color => "color=#ff00ff" Or "color=White"
    bctoast.DurationMs = 4000
    bctoast.PaddingTopBottom = 10dip
    bctoast.VerticalCenterPercentage = 50
    bctoast.pnl.Color = backgrcolor
    bctoast.Show($"[Alignment=Center][TextSize=16][b][${fontcolor}]${message}[/color][/b][/TextSize][/Alignment]"$)
End Sub

Thanks

Initialize it always. Not only when FirstTime is true

Oh, yes you are right, understand. Let me try. Thanks for your advice.

You didn't really mean to mark your own post as the solution, did you?

Tip: switch to B4XPages and forget from the many complexities related to the activities life cycle.
