java.lang.ClassCastException: com.phrase.android.sdk.inject.PhraseContextWrapper cannot be cast to android.app.ContextImpl

[mzsanford]

I'm testing Phrase integration and my app has a BroadcastReceiver registered in the manifest.xml like so:

       <receiver android:name="com.redacted.AppUpdatedReceiver">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MY_PACKAGE_REPLACED" />
            </intent-filter>
        </receiver>

And the class itself is a simple subclass of BroadcastReceiver implementing onReceive. If I comment this out of the manifest.xml everything works fine. When I have this enabled my app crashes soon after launch with:

    java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to instantiate receiver com.redacted.AppUpdatedReceiver: java.lang.ClassCastException: com.phrase.android.sdk.inject.PhraseContextWrapper cannot be cast to android.app.ContextImpl

Hi @mzsanford, the Android SDK is expecting an exact instance of ContextImpl in some places, which are causing this issue. For now, I would recommend removing Phrase.wrapApplicationContext from your Application class. We'll also likely release a new version soon which will remove this method.

Hey, thanks for your patience. We have now found a solution to be able to wrap the application context in an Application class. The fix is released in version 3.0.2. This should resolve the cast exception.

Hello,

We have the same issue that occurs on the latest Phrase app version of Android SDK 3.5.0 & 3.6.0 , I noticed a crash the first time of running the app with the SDK integrated on release Build variants.
: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to instantiate receiver
com.google.firebase.iid.FirebaseInstanceIdReceiver: java.lang.ClassCastException: com.phrase.android.sdk.inject.PhraseContextWrapper
cannot be cast to android.app.ContextImpl

Same issue here:

android.app.ActivityThread.handleReceiver
ActivityThread.java, line 4413

Hi, this turned out to be a regression and has should be resolved in version 3.7.1 https://github.com/phrase/phrase-android/releases/tag/3.7.1
