mCompiler == null

Error message

mCompiler == null

What it means

QMUIQQFaceView.setText() throws a RuntimeException when QQ face parsing is enabled (mOpenQQFace == true) but no compiler has been installed via setCompiler(). Without the compiler the view cannot parse face codes, so it fails fast at setText time rather than rendering raw codes.

Solutions

1. Call setCompiler(new QMUIQQFaceCompiler(context)) before the first setText (typically right after inflating/constructing the view).
2. If faces are not needed, disable them (qmui_open_qq_face=false / setter) instead of leaving the compiler unset.
3. Move setCompiler earlier in initialization so it precedes any programmatic or constructor-driven setText.

Example fix

// before
QMUIQQFaceView view = findViewById(R.id.qq_face_view); // openQQFace=true
view.setText("hello [QQ emoji] "); // throws

// after
QMUIQQFaceView view = findViewById(R.id.qq_face_view);
view.setCompiler(new QMUIQQFaceCompiler(context));
view.setText("hello [QQ emoji] ");

if (view.isOpenQQFace() && view.getCompiler() == null) {
    view.setCompiler(new QMUIQQFaceCompiler(context));
}
view.setText(text);

boolean isQQFaceViewReady(QMUIQQFaceView v) {
    return !v.isOpenQQFace() || v.getCompiler() != null;
}

try {
    view.setText(text);
} catch (RuntimeException e) {
    if (e.getMessage() != null && e.getMessage().contains("mCompiler == null")) {
        view.setCompiler(new QMUIQQFaceCompiler(context));
        view.setText(text);
    } else throw e;
}

When it happens

Trigger: Enabling openQQFace (XML attribute or setter) on a QMUIQQFaceView and then calling setText() without ever calling setCompiler(new QMUIQQFaceCompiler(...)).

Common situations: Adding a QMUIQQFaceView in XML with app:qmui_open_qq_face="true" but forgetting the compiler setup; view created before the compiler-dependent module init; constructors calling setText before setCompiler.
