creating retrofit instance failed












0















My app uses an android service in which
I create a retrofit instance and make a webservice call, whenever i get a firebase notification.



My app works fine in foreground and background
receives notification and the webservice is also triggered.



But when my app is in kill condition.



I check if the android service is running, if not I start the service and send a broadcast receiver to trigger the webservice call, but i receive the following error.




Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual
method 'java.lang.Object retrofit2.Retrofit.create(java.lang.Class)'
on a null object reference




Is this because, retrofit instance cannot be created in app kill condition.



how can i fix this?



Thanks in advance

  • if app is in background there is restriction on starting a service in the new android os version. If you need to do something in the background when process is killed you should look at workmanager.
