FATAL EXCEPTION: main. (Runtime exception) . Android - java

I'm new to android. I just tried creating a simple app that performs basic mathematical operations (addition,subtraction,multiplication and division). When i try to run the code i get FATAL EXCEPTION: mainerror. I've gone through the other threads that had the same problem. I still couldn't figure out why i'm having this error.
The mainactivity.java file is
package com.example.mathematicalopr;

Can i know why am i getting such an error? When i try to run this code on a virtual device the application closes unexpectedly. Thank you :)
Thank you everyone. Sorry apparently i don't have enough reputation to thank each one of you personally.

String myFirstNum = display.getText().toString();
final int a = Integer.parseInt(myFirstNum);
String mySecondNum = display1.getText().toString();
final int b = Integer.parseInt(mySecondNum);
insert this code in your add button click event listener then you will get correct data

Your Logcat say it all,
Read this
Invalid int: "Enter first number"
Your are casting a string value to int, which results java.lang.NumberFormatException.

you must change
<EditText
android:id="#+id/tvDisplay"
android:layout_width="342dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:inputType="number"
android:hint="#string/ref" />
<EditText
android:id="#+id/tvDisplay1"
android:layout_width="342dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:inputType="number"
android:hint="#string/ref1" />
you must change from
android:text="#string/ref1"
to
android:hint="#string/ref1"
because on oncreate() method you are retrieving value of EditText. And in xml you have set string for it and after that you have parsed it in Integer. So you have got invalid int error. So just change it for every EditText.
Your are casting a string value to int, which results java.lang.NumberFormatException.

Modified your code:

Help me please.
What i have to do to fix this problem? I'm new here.
The problem is sourced on line 39 in SearchResult.java. You can see this in the LogCat on the line after the one that starts with Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException.
txtAnswer is not a valid id for an EditText object in your activity_search_result.xml, so it returned null on line 35 when you searched for it. You cannot call .setText() on a null object.
txtAnswer is null. This is because it is not in the activity's view. Your activity loads its view as follows:
setContentView(R.layout.activity_search_result);
Yet the element with ID answer id not defined in activity_search_result.xml. It is defined in activity_search_user.xml.
So your problem is either:
a) You are loading the wrong view for your activity OR
b) You forgot to add the EditText with ID answer to your view (activity_search_result.xml)
Edit - looking at your code, I think it is likely that option is is the problem. So to fix this, change
setContentView(R.layout.activity_search_result);
to
setContentView(R.layout.activity_search_user);
You activity_search_result.xml does not contain any view that you have specified in your activity. You may have to pass right layout xml file in setContentView or change id of EditText and Button.

this is the error
java.lang.ClassCastException: android.widget.TextView
check your line 24 and see if you cast the right widget in java -(xml), this error means incompatible cast widget lol...
if everything seems correct-(mean widgets are cast in java to with their respective class) then clean rebuild and restart..
EDIT: It worked.. you've solved it but there is a new error which is
java.lang.NumberFormatException:
its because of this on these lines
ivalue1 = Integer.parseInt(strvalue1);
ivalue2 = Integer.parseInt(strvalue2);
ioperator = Integer.parseInt(stroperator);
so change these to this
Integer.valueOf(strvalue1); do that as follows
and also looking at your codes.. your string values are pullled from the edittext during oncreate which means when the app starts in oncreate before the Onresume(which is called when the app shows on the), and during oncreate the user cant flirt with your app, and going further to input values, so at the end your strings are empty when you pull from the edittext, so basically what im saying is remove these lines
strvalue1 = value1.getText().toString();
and put them in the click events ... i am lucid enough to you??..
EDIT2: OVERALL CODE
for button click
ok.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
strvalue1 = value1.getText().toString();
strvalue2 = value2.getText().toString();
stroperator = myoperator.getText().toString();
ivalue1 = Integer.valueOf(strvalue1);
ivalue2 = Integer.valueOf(strvalue2);
if (stroperator.equals("+")) {
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "If is running", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
});
remove ioperator = Integer.parseInt(stroperator); from the code.I think Your trying to convert the operator to Integer.
ioperator = Integer.parseInt(stroperator);
if you mean operator like this +,-,/,* , you only can convert to thr char or stay in string and do something like this:
private int plus(int ivalue1 , int ivalue2 , String operator ){
if(operator.equal("+")){
return ivalue1 + ivalue2;
}
return 0;
}

Can someone help me?
In your activity, you set the layout file like this:
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
This means, when you write findViewById, it will look within the activity_main.xml file.
Your button on the other hand is within another layout file.
Just move the click event into your fragment, and access the context using getActivity like so:
final Button loginButton = (Button) rootView.findViewById(R.id.connect);
loginButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(getActivity(), LoginDisplayActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
});
your button is in the fragment layout, you're "finding" it from the activity layout. Setup button onclick in the fragment onCreateView
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_main, container,
false);
final Button loginButton = (Button) rootView.findViewById(R.id.connect);
loginButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){...})
return rootView;
}
Remove the button and code from onCreate and shift the button and clicklistener code to onCreateView like this:
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_main, container,
false);
final Button loginButton = (Button) rootView.findViewById(R.id.connect);
loginButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, LoginDisplayActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
});
return rootView;
As your button is in fragment_main, not activity_main. The button is not found.

Android Runtime Crash

I'm new to Android development and trying to build my first application. I'm currently trying to build a simple counter that allows the user to increment the total by +1, -1, +5, -5 with the starting value being 20.

As per your code and layout , issue is with the EditText Id.
You are trying to find the EditText view using the Button Id
As per your layout change this line
Display = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.tvTotal);
to
Display = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.etTotal);
Also , the other issue is in setText to EditText
Display.setText(Total);
Total is an int. It should be a String or should be a valid String Resource ID
If you are setting an integer , it will be considered as Resource Id
This what the setText method does...
public final void setText(int resid) {
setText(getContext().getResources().getText(resid));
}
Either, change the int to pass the correct string Resource Id or convert the int to string like this
Display.setText(Integer.toString(Total));
You should use a debugger. Step each line in your onCreate method until you see a value that is wrong - probably a null pointer. You don't say how you built your application but using both Eclipse or Android Studio allow line by line debug stepping. Use this feature and it will allow you to find your bugs quickly and easily.
https://developer.android.com/tools/debugging/debugging-projects.html
make sure all of these exists in your layout activity_mail.xml
Plus1 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnPlus1);
Min1 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnMin1);
Plus5 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnPlus5);
Min5 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnmin5);
Display = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.tvTotal);
And by that I mean, check if there is a Button with ID btnPlus1 , then check if there is a Button with ID btnMin1, and so on.
Since the exception is a NullPointerException the problem is probably that you mistyped an ID and one (or more) of them is returning null.

How do I make the back button I created in the activity change the text in the textView to the previous text created by the random generator?

When I start the activity on my phone, it says that the app is not responding. The problem is the back button which I can't seem to program to make it gather the previous text from the textView.

It seems to me that R.id.next refers to an ImageButton, which cannot be cast into a Button, since it is not a subclass of a Button
Do you happen to see a ClassCastException?
To fix that particular issue, replace:
Button NextQuote = (Button)findViewById(R.id.next);
with
ImageButton NextQuote = (ImageButton)findViewById(R.id.next);
