LayoutInflater conflict with Robobinding

[Dellkan]

Hi. I've recently reported an issue to Robobinding regarding an issue that turned out to be a conflict with Calligraphy.

As it turns out, #setPrivateFactoryInternal seems to overwrite Robobinding's Factory2

Could you please take a look? There's more information @ https://github.com/RoboBinding/RoboBinding/issues/257

@Dellkan Any update on this? I have the same problem.

[Dellkan]

@zilchrhythm Made a hotfix back then in August, which seemed to do the trick. See https://github.com/Dellkan/Calligraphy/commit/df3a42f198e5fe5ccc0f0c2045be568fc28ec839 .

Been using this hotfix ever since.

@Dellkan How can I use your hotfix? Can you give me instruction?

[Dellkan]

Sure.

Step 1: Checkout https://github.com/Dellkan/Calligraphy/tree/alternative-deploy to android studio. (This branch adds deployment routines that I'm familiar with to Calligraphy, and allows you to publish it to a local repository)

Find the Gradle "tab" in the upper right side, and run :calligraphy->Tasks->build:assemble followed by :calligraphy->Tasks->publishing:publishToMavenLocal. (This can also be done through command-line/terminal, but I don't recall the exact syntax)

You will now have a version of Calligraphy with my hotfixes in it on a maven repository local to your computer.

Step 2: Open up your project where you want to use Calligraphy, and find the repositories tag in your build.gradle, and add mavenLocal() to it. Should now look something like

repositories {
    jcenter()
    mavenCentral()
    mavenLocal()
}

Step 3: In dependencies, add/change the compile calligraphy line to compile 'uk.co.chrisjenx:calligraphy:2.2.1-DEV' (The version including the -DEV tag is set in https://github.com/Dellkan/Calligraphy/blob/alternative-deploy/metadata.gradle, feel free to change it to something that makes sense to you)

And that's it, your project will now compile with the modified Calligraphy.

Sorry just saw this, yeah didn't realise someone else would a nastier hack than me, yeah I need to "Get" the private factory and set it like RoboBindings does.
