App crashes when I use the lib + Camera

[baldeweb]

If I take a pic from camera, and after this, I try to take a pic from gallery, the app crashes, and send me this error in log:

java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.content.res.XmlResourceParser android.content.pm.ProviderInfo.loadXmlMetaData(android.content.pm.PackageManager, java.lang.String)' on a null object reference

My code, that's being used is this below:

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
    @BindView(R.id.imageView1)
    ImageView ivPhoto;

    private static final int REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE = 1;
    private Bitmap imgBmpFromCamera;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        ButterKnife.bind(this);
    }

    @OnClick(R.id.imageView1)
    void takeImage() {
        alert(this, "Choose an option", "Open with camera or take from gallery",
                "Camera", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
                        if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(MainActivity.this, Manifest.permission.CAMERA) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
                            if (ActivityCompat.shouldShowRequestPermissionRationale(MainActivity.this, Manifest.permission.CAMERA)) {

                            } else {
                                //  LIBERA A PERMISSÃO SEM PEDIR NOVAMENTE
                                ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(MainActivity.this, new String[]{Manifest.permission.CAMERA}, REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
                            }
                        } else {
                            openCamera();
                        }
                    }
                },
                "Gallery", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {

                        } catch (Exception e) {
                            Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Problem to open the gallery.\nUse the camera or try later.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                            Log.e("LOG", "Erro: " + e);
                        }
                    }
                });
    }

    private void openCamera() {
        Intent takePictureIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
        if (takePictureIntent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null)
            startActivityForResult(takePictureIntent, REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE);

    }
}

Add this to the application tag of your Android Manifest:

        <provider
            android:name="android.support.v4.content.FileProvider"
            android:authorities="com.mvc.imagepicker.provider"
            android:exported="false"
            android:grantUriPermissions="true"
            tools:replace="android:authorities">
            <meta-data
                android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
                android:resource="@xml/provider_paths"
                tools:replace="android:resource"/>
        </provider>

@baldeweb add permission for camera in menifest or runtime , and adding <provider> in manifest will definatly solve this issue.It worked for me
