How do i initialize the new version of crashlytics?

Question

Everything works fine when I initialize my application with:

Fabric.with(this, new Crashlytics());

However, I get an exception when I use:

Fabric.with(this, new CrashlyticsCore());

The following exception:

FATAL EXCEPTION: main Process: com.weightbook, PID: 19438
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Crashlytics must be initialized by calling Fabric.with(Context) prior to calling Crashlytics.getInstance()
at com.crashlytics.android.Crashlytics.checkInitialized(Crashlytics.java:372)
at com.crashlytics.android.Crashlytics.setUserName(Crashlytics.java:248)
at com.weightbook.analytics.AnalyticsManager.setUsernameOnCrashlytics(AnalyticsManager.java:64)

Mike from Fabric and Crashlytics here. Your first init call is correct, but you could also use:

Fabric.with(this, new CrashlyticsCore(), new Crashlytics());

or use:

Fabric.with(this, CrashlyticsCore.getInstance());

with the following imports:

import com.crashlytics.android.Crashlytics;
import com.crashlytics.android.core.CrashlyticsCore;
import io.fabric.sdk.android.Fabric;

Using just CrashlyticsCore.getInstance() will give you only Crashlytics crash reporting and nothing else, where as new Crashlytics() would include Beta and Answers.
