java.lang.ClassCastException: com.google.gson.JsonSyntaxException cannot be cast to com.github.kittinunf.fuel.core.FuelError

Suppose you have a JSON like

{
  "success": 1,
  "errors": [],
  "update_time": 1542190271,
}

And a parsing class like

data class YourResponse(
    val success: Int,
    val update_time: Int,
    val errors: ErrorsResponse?
) {
    data class ErrorsResponse(
        val data: List<String>?
    )

    class Deserializer : ResponseDeserializable<YourResponse> {
        override fun deserialize(content: String): YourResponse? =
            Gson().fromJson(content, YourResponse::class.java)
    }
}

If you parse this JSON in interactor like api.getJson().awaitObjectResponse(YourResponse.Deserializer()).third,

you will receive java.lang.ClassCastException: com.google.gson.JsonSyntaxException cannot be cast to com.github.kittinunf.fuel.core.FuelError,

while a real exception is com.google.gson.JsonSyntaxException: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Expected BEGIN_OBJECT but was BEGIN_ARRAY at line 1 column 24 path $.errors.

It wastes much time to understand in a case of long JSON.

NikkyAI has fixed this after releasing 1.16.0.

You can either use jitpack to get the snapshot version, or wait for 2.0.0
