created issue #1

Dec 21, 2018 04:53PM

Component used: Navigation
Version used: 1.0.0-alpha09
Devices/Android versions reproduced on: Android 9 emulator

In our app, we use multiple NavHostFragment in one Activity, few of them have their own navGraph set in xml, say nav_subgraph_1, nav_subgraph_2.

In code, we use NavDeepLinkBuilder to navigate to a specified page.
NavDeepLinkBuilder(it)
.setGraph(R.navigation.nav_subgraph_1)
.setDestination(R.id.dest_in_subgraph1)
.createTaskStackBuilder()
.startActivities()

It leads a crash in setContentView since the dest_in_subgraph1 couldn't be found in nav_subgraph_2 (while parsing the second NavHostFragment in the same Activity)

Marked as fixed.

This has been fixed internally in

https://android-review.googlesource.com/870975 and will be available in Navigation 1.0.0-alpha10.

Now, instead of crashing, we ignore invalid deep links, printing a log message saying as much.

Hi team.
The problem still occurs on version 2.2.0-rc04

Hi, still getting crash for 2.1.0

findInvalidDestinationDisplayNameInDeepLink always return null if deepLink length == 1 (deep link destination is start destination of any navGraph of BottomNavigationView)

NavDestination node = i == 0 ? mGraph : graph.findNode(destinationId);
if deepLink.length == 1 node never will be null and this will cause IllegalStateException

Bug demo:

get NavigationAdvancedSample from github

on R.id.about_btn click

NavDeepLinkBuilder(it.context)
.setGraph(R.navigation.list)
.setDestination(R.id.leaderboard)
.createTaskStackBuilder()
.startActivities()

will crash because R.id.leaderboard is start destination (findInvalidDestinationDisplayNameInDeepLink will have deepLink length == 1)

NavDeepLinkBuilder(it.context)
.setGraph(R.navigation.list)
.setDestination(R.id.userProfile)
.createTaskStackBuilder()
.startActivities()

will work because findInvalidDestinationDisplayNameInDeepLink will return NOT null

It still crash with the latest version 2.2.1. I think the problem lies somewhere around this code

NavDestination node = i == 0 ? mGraph : graph.findNode(destinationId);

When i is 0, just return mGraph itself. When the deep link destination is a root of bottom_nav tab, the deeplink.length becomes 1. Which means this function still says there's no invalid Destination in deep link even if deepLink[0] is totally irrelevant tomGraph.

So this step passes and when findDestination() is actually triggered down the road, it won't find any destination and thus lead to unknown destination crash.

All NavControllers of bottom nav automatically call handleDeepLink() as part of onGraphCreated(). The problem arises the moment NavController whose graph is irrelevant to the root deep link destination calls handleDeepLink().

It still crashes with 2.3.0-alpha03 version but only if you try to deeplink to startDestination fragment inside navigation graph. Repro steps (described in #8, but lets repeat it in hope issue will be reopened):

download NavigationAdvancedSample
send pending intent to any startDestination screen, e.g.

val pendingIntent = NavDeepLinkBuilder(applicationContext)
                .setGraph(R.navigation.list)
                .setDestination(R.id.leaderboard)
                .setArguments(bundle) // no matter if it is empty in this use case
                .createPendingIntent()
pendingIntent.send()

Exception:

Reopening would be a good sign that issue is recognized.

Just in a case Reopen feature is not implemented in IssueTracker :), new ticket is created: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/151164638

I heard a rumour that instead of "Reopen" they implemented a "delete and block contributors" button 🙂

ne...@gmail.com <ne...@gmail.com> #13Mar 12, 2020 07:12PM

I would close it as "Working as Designed"😕

Filing a new bug with a sample project that reproduces the issue you're still seeing is indeed the correct behavior. We don't support bug necromancy, particularly 30 releases after the original fix was shipped.
