Android NullPointerException FragmentHostCallback.getHandler()

在用到FragmentPagerAdapter的时候，出现了下面的错误：

java.lang.NullPointerException:Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.os.Handler android.support.v4.app.FragmentHostCallback.getHandler()' on a null object reference 

看到这个，瞬间懵逼了，于是在网上怒搜，没想到，好多人都碰到了这个问题，其中最火的一个帖子：

https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=216157

原来这个是Google support library的问题，而且一直没有解决：

可以看出，各种人吐槽，而且google一直没有修复，也没有打算修复的想法，最后一个人直接这样质问Google的开发者，也是够直接，够犀利：

Googlers it is shame that the bug is there in view pager more than 3 years.  Why don't you take seriously? Fix it guys can't wait more time

没办法，我也是各种搜索，最后总算找到了一种解决办法，但是具体出处忘了,这里感谢一下！

在你的FragmentPagerAdapter代码下，复写finishUpdate方法：

@Override
public void finishUpdate(ViewGroup container) {
     try{
         super.finishUpdate(container);
     } catch (NullPointerException nullPointerException){
         Log.d("Catch the NullPointerException in FragmentPagerAdapter.finishUpdate");
     }
}

在这里记录一下！
