NullpointerException on Backstack

Question

I use API Level 16, in i try to replace some Fragment below some Tab where already is some Fragment. I cant really find a reason why, but sometimes i get an Exception like this:

E/AndroidRuntime(27395): java.lang.NullPointerException
E/AndroidRuntime(27395):    at android.app.BackStackRecord.run(BackStackRecord.java:604)
E/AndroidRuntime(27395):    at android.app.FragmentManagerImpl.execPendingActions(FragmentManager.java:1399)
E/AndroidRuntime(27395):    at android.app.FragmentManagerImpl$1.run(FragmentManager.java:426)

E/AndroidRuntime(27395):    at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method)

I do not add an null Fragment and code running there is simple:

            final Fragment newFragment = Fragment.instantiate(anContext, clazz.getName(), arguments);
            final FragmentTransaction transaction = manager.beginTransaction();
            transaction.disallowAddToBackStack();
            transaction.replace(R.id.fragment_content_center, newFragment);
            transaction.commit();

If you like, have a look on Grepcode, as there the Exception happens: http://grepcode.com/file/repository.grepcode.com/java/ext/com.google.android/android/4.1.2_r1/android/app/BackStackRecord.java#604

Im not using any Animations there.

I checked for possible failures like replace(id,null) and it didnt was the case. — Kitesurfer, Mar 07 '13 at 08:51

The Problem was something different,

i was using in each Transaction an Fragment TAG when doing the replace call. On the upper code i didnt. That was causing this NullPointerException.

Look like you cant mix transactions, Documentation is not clear about that.

thanx, Kitesurfer
