The support library has been superseded by [AndroidX](/jetpack/androidx) which is part of [Jetpack](/jetpack). We recommend using the AndroidX libraries in all new projects. You should also consider [migrating](/jetpack/androidx/migrate) existing projects to AndroidX. To find the AndroidX class that maps to this deprecated class, see the AndroidX support library [class\n| mappings](/jetpack/androidx/migrate/class-mappings).\n\n\n`\npublic\n\n\nclass\nStaleObjectException\n`\n\n\n`\n\n\n`\n\n`\n\n\n`\n\n`\n\n\n`\n\n`\n\nextends `[RuntimeException](https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/RuntimeException.html)`\n\n\n`\n\n`\n\n\n`\n\n|---|---|---|---|-------------------------------------------------------|\n| [java.lang.Object](https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/Object.html) |||||\n| ↳ | [java.lang.Throwable](https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/Throwable.html) ||||\n| | ↳ | [java.lang.Exception](https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/Exception.html) |||\n| | | ↳ | [java.lang.RuntimeException](https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/RuntimeException.html) ||\n| | | | ↳ | android.support.test.uiautomator.StaleObjectException |\n\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\n*** ** * ** ***\n\nA [StaleObjectException](/reference/android/support/test/uiautomator/StaleObjectException) exception is thrown when a [UiObject2](/reference/android/support/test/uiautomator/UiObject2) is used after the\nunderlying [View](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.html) has been destroyed.
