GCKUIStyle.sharedInstance() crashes app

[sky-digital]

When calling GCKUIStyle.sharedInstance() the app crashes with the following message:

Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '*** -[__NSDictionaryM setObject:forKey:]: object cannot be nil (key: playImage)'

I'm using Xcode 11.3 and SDK version 4.4.4.

Does anyone know how to solve?

Did you set the shared instance on the context first like this? https://github.com/googlecast/CastHelloVideo-ios/blob/b933167f2bd283458193e06a41a8d525271ea456/CastHelloVideo-swift/Classes/AppDelegate.swift#L32

Could be related to #72 ?

I am facing the same issue as my project is crashing on launch with the same exception on ios13. However if I run the same project on iOS 13 below versions it runs fine. Anybody got any solution for this. My current google-cast-sdk version is 4.3.3.

Any update on this issue? I am facing the same issue and am on the latest version of the Cast SDK

Sounds like maybe someone forgot to call self = [super init]

For any issues unrelated to the sample, please file an issue with the SDK so it can get the proper attention and include details to reproduce: https://developers.google.com/cast/support#report_issues

That said, I tried adding the following lines here and did not experience a crash on iOS 13 with the latest SDK.

// Get the shared instance of GCKUIStyle
let castStyle = GCKUIStyle.sharedInstance()
// Set the property of the desired cast widget.
castStyle.castViews.mediaControl.miniController.bodyTextColor = UIColor.red
// Refresh all currently visible views with the assigned styles.
castStyle.apply()

If you are able to include steps for how to reproduce on the ticket you file that will be extremely helpful.

I have been having this same issue with react-native-google-cast, which is using version 4.3.0 of the googlecast-sdk (hardcoded in the podspec). When I use the non-bluetooth sdk, it uses 4.4.8, which doesn't produce the error.

'react-native-google-cast', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-google-cast/ios', :subspecs => [
    'NoBluetooth'
  ]

Please file an issue with https://github.com/react-native-google-cast/react-native-google-cast as react-native-google-cast is not officially supported and 4.3.0 is very old.

If you find an SDK issue, please file an issue with the SDK so it can get the proper attention and include details to reproduce: https://developers.google.com/cast/support#report_issues
