    Description

      I've just started updating my apps to Qt 6.7 and I have started seeing a lot of NullPointerException at QtActivityDelegate.java:83 in the Google Play Console.

      Apparently m_layout is null when the activity is being restarted.

       

      QtActivityDelegate.java
          @Override
    public boolean updateActivityAfterRestart(Activity activity) {
        boolean updated = super.updateActivityAfterRestart(activity);
        // TODO verify whether this is even needed, the last I checked the initMembers
        // recreates the layout anyway
        // update the new activity content view to old layout
        ViewGroup layoutParent = (ViewGroup)m_layout.getParent();
        if (layoutParent != null)
            layoutParent.removeView(m_layout);
        m_activity.setContentView(m_layout);
        return updated;
    }

       

      I haven't been able to reproduce it. However here is the full stack trace from the Google Play Console.
