In the Android project's MainLauncher or any Activity that is launched, this library must be initialized in the OnCreate method:
protected override void OnCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
//...
base.OnCreate(savedInstanceState);
Xamarin.DateTimePopups.Platform.Init(this, savedInstanceState); // add this line to your code, it may also be called: bundle
//...
}
iOS (Optional)
You can set the function to get the current UIView
public override bool FinishedLaunching(UIApplication app, NSDictionary options)
{
Xamarin.DateTimePopups.Platform.Init(()=> Xamarin.Essentials.Platform.GetCurrentUIViewController()?.View);
global::Xamarin.Forms.Forms.Init();
LoadApplication(new App());
return base.FinishedLaunching(app, options);
}
