I am facing an issue in quickblox since 15th April, when Quickblox updated SDK for android to 2.5.2. The problem that i noticed is like, if i have customData parameter filled for a dialog, then it throws the IOExeption mentioned below. else no issues.
Dialog that casues no issues.
QBDialog{id=xxxx, created_at=2016-19-04 11:36:54, last_msg_user_id=xxxx, occupants_ids=[xxxx, xxxx, last_message=hey, last_message_date_sent=1461046124, type=PRIVATE, name=xxxx, room_jid=null, user_id=xxxx, photo=null, unread_message_count=0, customData=null}
Dialog that causes Crash.
QBDialog{id=xxxx, created_at=2016-19-04 12:01:00, last_msg_user_id=xxxx, occupants_ids=[xxxx, xxxx], last_message=hello, last_message_date_sent=1461047494, type=PRIVATE, name=xxxx, room_jid=null, user_id=xxxx, photo=null, unread_message_count=1, customData=QBBaseCustomObject{className='DialogueRelationState', fields={isFriends=true, location_field=null}}}
Code segment that passes dialogs like above to Activity_chat class
Bundle bundle = new Bundle();
bundle.getString(selectedDialog.toString());
bundle.putSerializable(Activity_Chat.EXTRA_DIALOG, selectedDialog);
Activity_Chat.start(DrawActivity_Chatlist.this, bundle);// error points here
start method of the receiving Activity
public static void start(Context context, Bundle bundle) {
Intent intent = new Intent(context, Activity_Chat.class);
intent.putExtras(bundle);
context.startActivity(intent); //error points here
}
Error Log:

what i understand from this is, it encounters something as JSON in the Dialog which is not serializable and hence the error.
NOTE: This was working fine before April 15th, and i have not made any changes to my custom class too
I have tried upgrading SDK version from v2.5 to v2.5.2, but no use.
QuickBlox recently added a location_field which was returning a jsonObject but was expecting string. Finally adding this lines while getting dialogs made the trick.
for (QBDialog dialog : dialogs) {
QBDialogCustomData customData = dialog.getCustomData();
usersIDs.addAll(dialog.getOccupants());
if (customData == null) {
continue;
}
HashMap<String, Object> fields = customData.getFields();
if (!fields.isEmpty()) {
fields.put("location_field", null);
}
}
