从Log中看到是应用调用PlacePickerActivity时的空指针异常，一看就感觉这可能不是单个应用Bug。于是跑到Google Play上下载了会调用PlacePicker的其他应用：Google Keep，测试发现果然也是一样的问题。这就说明Google Map API提供的PlacePicker这个功能就完全没法用了！这就严重了。

在Google上搜了一下，发现还不少人遇到这个问题，在Google issue tracker上还有一条记录：https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/37127543。大神们的大多在讨论应用开发时遇到这个问题怎么解决。零星几条是手机原厂的留言，而且并未给出解决办法。

只能自己看Log分析了，从StactTrace中看到最终空指针发生的地方是在ResolutionOverride.java这个类中：

/** @hide */
    public ResolutionOverride(SurfaceView view) {
        boolean enable = (view.getContext().getApplicationInfo().canOverrideRes() == 1);
        int orientation = view.getResources().getConfiguration().orientation;

        if(enable && (orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT ||
                orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE)) {
            String resStr = SystemProperties.get(RES_OVERRIDE, null);

具体是在view.getResources().getConfiguration().orientation这一行，应该是view.getResources()获取的是空，然后我就不知道咋整了，图样啊。。。和同事讨论下，建议我先catch试试，抱着死马当活马医的心态试了一下，竟然都正常了。。。。我表示很无奈啊。

想着catch都行，那试试更好看点的，改为：
view.getContext().getResources().getConfiguration().orientation，我感觉自己都在自欺欺人，没想到也可以！吓得我赶紧在看了下View的源码：

public View(Context context) {
        mContext = context;
        mResources = context != null ? context.getResources() : null;
        mViewFlags = SOUND_EFFECTS_ENABLED | HAPTIC_FEEDBACK_ENABLED;
        // Set some flags defaults
        mPrivateFlags2 =

从这构造函数来看，mResources为null，不就是约等于context也为null么？而且View中的mResources是定义为final的！这真的就涉及到我的知识盲区了。。

提供了一个“不知道原理”的解决方案，如果大神路过，还请指教。
