Exception thrown by ANR WatchDog not catchable by ACRA about anr-watchdog HOT 5 CLOSED

Maybe that's the issue: "ACRA is disabled for ch.ione.safefingerprint" ?

from anr-watchdog.

Hi, thanks for the reply.

Fair assumption. However, I tested it with a regular NullPointerException, which was caught without problems. My assumption was that it says ACRA is disabled because it couldn't catch the exception, which seems to be the case.
So I think the error still goes back to what it says:

Caused by: java.io.NotSerializableException: com.github.anrwatchdog.ANRError$$

Adding "implements Serializable" to the static inner class "$" fixes that one, but then I get a serializable error on the anonymous inner class:

Caused by: java.io.NotSerializableException: com.github.anrwatchdog.ANRError$1

which I don't even know which one it is. Might be this one here:

final Map<Thread, StackTraceElement[]> stackTraces = new TreeMap<Thread, StackTraceElement[]>(new Comparator<Thread>() {
...

(at least that looks most similar to what decompiling ANRError$1.class gives me).

But I am not familiar enough with the code to fix that one.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Well, the exception was not serializable indeed, which makes ACRA crash.
I will publish v1.2.0 later today that corrects this issue.
Basically, I've stopped attaching the Map<Thread, StackTraceElement[]> of running threads / stacktraces to the exception considering that:

• It's not serializable
• It can be very easily obtained via Thread.getAllStackTraces()
• I'm pretty sure no one uses it anyway

All stack traces are still visible in the ANRError stack trace, so it won't affect reporting.

I will post here as soon as it is available on Maven :)

v1.2.0 is pushed. The ANRError is now serializable (I've checked).
Thanks for the report :)

Great! Thanks!
