ExperimentationConfigurator Fatal Exception: java.lang.NullPointerException

一.问题

之前因为facebook的SDK许久未更新
我们把Facebook SDK从4.11.0更新到4.30.0

  compile 'com.facebook.android:facebook-login:4.30.0'
  compile 'com.facebook.android:account-kit-sdk:4.30.0'

遇到了很多下面的这个问题

Fatal Exception: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'org.json.JSONArray org.json.JSONObject.getJSONArray(java.lang.String)' on a null object reference

       at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:1120)

二.解决方案

1.是追溯调用栈的信息。

发现即使看不到调用栈，也追溯到了AccountKit.initialize()方法会间接的调用到了Crash的代码位置。

2.查看自己代码

果然有AccountKit.initialize()的相关调用。可是已经@Deprecated。
然后去官网查了一下Changelog：
Facebook SDK for Android Changelog 4.x

调查发现在4.11.0-4.30.0之间的Changelog中有这样一段

4.19.0 - January 25, 2017

其中呢，注意到2条。4.19.0这个版本之后。AccountKit.initialize(),FacebookSdk.sdkInitialize(ctx);都已经@Deprecated掉了。查看sdk源码获知，SDK已经通过AccountKitInitProvider,FacebookInitProvider两个ContentProvider的方式，在更早的时间节点完成了初始化。所以就不用我们手动初始化了。抱着试试看的想法，去掉了。无用的初始化调用。结果BUG量直线下降。虽然fabric上还有个别情况发生。但是已经不再是Rank榜第一了。

虽然还是想不通。多调用一次init为什么会导致这样的问题。但还是算先改掉了这个BUG吧。

3.统计自动调用。

当然这个也不需要手动调用了。
AppEventsLogger.activateApp(this);
