------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> [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.
