--------------------------------
Summary: [amazon-fireos]Add a check for webview being null in
template code
Key: CB-6644
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6644
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Amazon FireOS
Affects Versions: 3.4.0
Reporter: Archana Naik
Assignee: Archana Naik
Fix For: 3.5.0
amazon-fireos uses AmazonWebView which provides chromium based webapp runtime.
Port needs webview sdk which ships with 2 different jars - awv_interface.jar
and awv_android_factory.jar. By default, adding amazon-fireos platform to the
app copies awv_interface.jar to project's libs folder so its bundled with the
app. However, that means app will work on Kindle fire devices but on generic
android devices it will not. In order for it to work on android devices, app
developer needs to copy awv_android_factory.jar to libs folder so app will
automatically use fallback mechanism to instantiate stock android webview.
Now, in case of no fallback mechanism CordovaActivity's appview will be null so
if developer uses this.appview in onCreate() method app will crash.
Solution: add boilder plate code to check for this.appview not being null.
