I have a fragment which extends android.app.Fragment. Inside onCreateView in some case I have java.lang.ClassCastException when I try cast Application to my implementation of Application.

public class SketchFragment extends android.app.Fragment{
    @Nullable
    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        View inflate = inflater.inflate(R.layout.layout, container, false);
        ButterKnife.bind(this,inflate);

        MyApplication application = (MyApplication)  getActivity().getApplicationContext();

        //Previously, I tried to
        //MyApplication application = (MyApplication) getActivity().getApplication()

        }
    }

Actually I have this error in <5% of all users(My Crashlytics log say that) only in Android 6. My Crashlytics log below :

Fatal Exception: java.lang.ClassCastException: android.app.Application cannot be cast to com.example.app.MyApplication

My application part from Manifest file:

<application android:name=".MyApplication" android:allowBackup="true" android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher" android:label="..." android:largeHeap="true" android:supportsRtl="true" android:theme="@style/AppTheme" > </application >

Thanks in advance!

    have you looked into this? http://stackoverflow.com/a/6760019/588532 – Uriel Frankel Oct 31 '16 at 16:16
  • Were you able to figure out the cause - I am getting the same exception for some users in Android 6.0 in my service class. Service.getApplication() no longer casts to . – adarsh May 25 '17 at 06:52

    Looks like an android issue but no resolution or acknowledgement yet - https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/37137009 – adarsh May 25 '17 at 07:01
