Can anyone please help me? I just don't understand why does it throw null pointer exception.
I work with ksoap2,WCF web methods and android. I checked the "list" in debugger mode and it is not null.
Here is my code:
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
String loginMemberId = "a001";
Context context;
List list;
ListView listView;
Button button;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button);
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
getBeneficiariesNameSet BNL = new getBeneficiariesNameSet();
try {
list = BNL.execute().get();
if(list!=null && list.size()>0) {
ArrayAdapter<String> arrayAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(context, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, list); //null pointer exception,line 43
listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listBeneficiaries);
listView.setAdapter(arrayAdapter);
}else{
Toast.makeText(context,"No data in array",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
});
}
public class getBeneficiariesNameSet extends AsyncTask<String, Void, List<String>> {
private final ProgressDialog dialog = new ProgressDialog(MainActivity.this);
#Override
protected List<String> doInBackground(String... params) {
TestArray CS = new TestArray();
List<String> response = CS.getBeneficiariesNameSet(loginMemberId);
return response;
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(List<String> s) {
super.onPostExecute(s);
dialog.dismiss();
}
}
}
And here is the Log cat.

Caused by: java.lang.NumberFormatException: Invalid int: ""
(after FATAL EXCEPTION:) tells us you are trying to parse an int but the value you are trying to parse is an empty String.
this line (the first that references your class) tells us which line it was
at com.example.database.MainActivity.xmlToVar(MainActivity.java:72)
this is happening because you are calling it in onCreate() before the EditText has any value entered.
From the line above, we can see that the error happens in MainActivity in the method xmlToVar at line 72 which should be
Age = Integer.parseInt(age.getText().toString());
To solve this, you should call that method in an onClick or some event listener. You also should surround it in a try/catch or use some other validation checking.
You should read the following questions and their answers for more details:
What is a stack trace, and how can I use it to debug my application errors?
Unfortunately MyApp has stopped. How can I solve this?
java.lang.NumberFormatException: Invalid int: "" in android
basically, read the error it gives you then look for the first line which mentions your class. Sometimes you need to read deeper but for basic errors that is usually enough.
Also Please Explain how to use LogCat as I am 3 days Old Android Programmer. I never used Eclipse.
Note that the stacktrace isn't Eclipse or even Java/Android specific. You can get some sort of crash log like this in other languages/IDEs/Consoles
The problem is here:
Age = Integer.parseInt(age.getText().toString());
age.getText().toString() equals "" and which causes the NumberFormatException
im making a simple calories calculator and it gives me that error, i already reviewed the code and searched here for the solution but im not able to see why is not running.
I thought it was because i had not initialized the variable, so i did it and still got the same error, maybe is something with the spinners, im new on using spinners
here is the code:
public class CaloriesCalculator extends ActionBarActivity {

Yout btnCalculate is null, you should initialize before doing the onclickListener:
btnCalculate = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btnCalculate); //your id
Also note that you are initializing the dataAdapter2 but actually you are using dataAdapert, and list2 dont have any elements, because you declare it but u are filling always list1
OK,time for another noobie question:
I have declared a TextView at the top of the Activity class as static which I believe should make it "global". Then in onCreate I attach that variable to a TextView. Looks like so:
public class CheckerActivity extends Activity {
String testNumber = "0";
public static TextView displayArray;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_checker);
int[] numbersArray;
Intent intent = getIntent();
numbersArray = intent.getIntArrayExtra(EnterCurrentNumbersActivity.CURRENT_NUMBERS_ARRAY);
String arrayStringed = Arrays.toString(numbersArray);
displayArray = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.currentNumbers);
displayArray.setText(arrayStringed);
}
Then in a method I created myself in the same class I'm trying to use that TextView declaration and write something to it. Like so:
public void addNumber(String[] numbersToAdd) {
this.setContentView(R.layout.activity_checker);
displayArray.setText(Arrays.toString(numbersToAdd));
}
I then have a button that calls the addNumber method like so:
public void populateButton(View view) {
String[] temp = {"test", "array"};
CheckerActivity addNumbers = new CheckerActivity();
addNumbers.addNumber(temp);
}
But when the button is clicked I keep getting NullPointerException on the addNumber method.
I've searched all over for this but I think I just don't know what to ask Google. As far as I can tell, this should work, where am I going wrong??
logcat after your sugestions. (But Eldar Mensutov got it. Works now!)

To carry of from this question, I now wish to call
public void addNumber(String[] numbersToAdd)
from a completely different class (whole different file within the same project)
Using this.addNumber(temp); doesn't work.
Any suggestions??
Do not call
this.setContentView(R.layout.activity_checker);
in your public void addNumber(String[] numbersToAdd).
And replase
CheckerActivity addNumbers = new CheckerActivity();
addNumbers.addNumber(temp);
on
this.addNumber(temp);
And make you field not static: public TextView displayArray;
I have a very very simple project in which what I am trying to achieve is to that when a user click on the button it display the text. But in the ADB it says unfortunately showtext stop working. What is the reason behind this?
I had tried but not got any result. My code is fine but not working. Below is java code for it. I omitted xml code as it contain only the button and a text view not so complex.
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
Button ShowText;
TextView DisplayText;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
ShowText=(Button)findViewById(R.id.bShowText);
}
void ShowMeText(View view){
DisplayText=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.tvShowText);
DisplayText.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
}
}
Try solve my this little issue. Thanks in Advance.

You need to add android:onClick="ShowMeText" in your Button in your Layout. like so
<Button .............
android:onClick="ShowMeText"
......... />
and used lower case for method creation as Java naming Convention . like so showmetext
and also defined your ShowMeText(...) method as Public
ShowMeText(View v) has to be public.
Btw. start function names with lower case characters as specified by Java code style.
<Button
android:id="#+id/tvShowText"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:onClick="ShowMeText" />
in java code
public void ShowMeText(View v){
DisplayText=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.tvShowText);
DisplayText.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
}
public class MainActivity extends Activity implements OnClickListener {
Button ShowText;
TextView DisplayText;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
ShowText = (Button) findViewById(R.id.bShowText);
DisplayText = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tvShowText);
ShowText.setOnClickListener(this);
}
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
if (v.getId() == ShowText.getId())
// need to check ID because from which view has fire event soo we can handle appropriate
DisplayText.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
}
}
// Try this way,hope this will help you to solve your problem.

I have an app that's supposed to get some string from a server depending on the webpage, and it crashes every time I run it. I don't understand how to even debug it, and I've tried numerous changes. It started crashing ever since I messed with the GUI, and added the ability to switch views if that provides any sort of help.
Here is the code:

viewGroup.removeView(main);
viewGroup.addView(View.inflate(this, R.layout.read_out, null));
}
public void switchToMain(){
System.out.println("Switching view to Main.");
viewGroup.removeView(readOut);
viewGroup.addView(View.inflate(this, R.layout.activity_main, null));
}
}

#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.mylayout);
LinearLayout viewGroup = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.linearview);
