I am sorry to post that in case it is just something stupid I am doing, but I hope there is some weird Java thing causing this that I am unaware of and can that will help others. Am I overlooking something here? Why the NPE?
Here is my code:
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
int itemSoldCount = Integer.parseInt(afterAt[1]);
System.out.println("itemSoldCount: " + itemSoldCount);
ShopJInternalFrame.shopHolderWAIType = new JLabel[itemSoldCount];
int i = 2;
for (int k = 0; k < itemSoldCount; k++){
String waiType = afterAt[i];
System.out.println("ShopJInternalFrame.shopHolderWAIType.length: " + ShopJInternalFrame.shopHolderWAIType.length);
System.out.println("waiType: " + waiType);
System.out.println("k: " + k);
ShopJInternalFrame.shopHolderWAIType[k].setText(waiType); //line 530
Here is my output:
itemSoldCount: 2
ShopJInternalFrame.shopHolderWAIType.length: 2
waiType: A
k: 0

This allocates storage for the array, but not for any JLabel objects. The array contains all nulls at this point. When you reach
ShopJInternalFrame.shopHolderWAIType[k].setText(waiType);
shopHolderWAIType[k] is null.
ShopJInternalFrame.shopHolderWAIType[k] will be null because you have not allocated any memory for individual array member. So you need to do this before you use the array member.
ShopJInternalFrame.shopHolderWAIType[k] = new new JLabel();

I try to modify the OptaPlanner nurse Roster example.
So far, I want to write a rule in the drl file which reacts when an employee works more than 13 hours per day.
I expanded the class shiftType to get hours per Shift.
At first look, the rule seems to work but when there is no feasible solution after a while I get a NullPointerException.
Here is some relevant code:
rule "dailyRestPeriod"
when
ShiftAssignment($employee : employee, $shiftType : shiftType, $shiftDate : shiftDate, $employee!=null)
$dailyTotalHours : Number( intValue > 13) from accumulate(
$assignmentEmployee: ShiftAssignment(employee == $employee, shiftDate == $shiftDate),
sum($assignmentEmployee.getShiftType().getShiftDurationHours())
)
then
System.out.println("Employee " +$employee +" dailyTotal " +$dailyTotalHours);
scoreHolder.addHardConstraintMatch(kcontext, - 1);
end
And part of the Exception

I don't understand why but when i change the rule a little bit it works fine when i broke down the rule.
Perhaps it has something to do with planning variables and planning entity,.. but I'm not sure.
Here is the code how it looks like now:
rule "dailyRestPeriod"
when
$employee : Employee()
$shift : Shift( $shiftType : shiftType , $shiftDate :shiftDate )
$dailyTotalHours : Number( intValue >= 13) from accumulate(
$assignmentEmployee: ShiftAssignment(employee == $employee, shiftDate == $shiftDate),
sum($assignmentEmployee.getShiftType().getShiftDurationHours())
)
then
scoreHolder.addHardConstraintMatch(kcontext, - 1);
end
I'm getting

Try adding the following modifications...
else if(s == bComboDelete)
{
int z = cb.getSelectedIndex();
// -1 means that no item is selected
if (z > -1) {
//System.out.println(z);
names.remove(z);

tNumbers.setText("");//also TextField
numbers.clear();
numbers=arrayStringToIntegerArrayList(sNumbers.get(i));
tNumbers.setText(numbers.toString().substring(1, numbers.toString().length()-1));
}
}
It seems I fixed this.
Now code is like this:
I'm too lazy to rename the var to eng. Please ignore System out.
so:
nazwy = names
oceny = numbers
sOceny = sNumbers
cbLista = cb
tNazwa = tNames
tOceny = tNumbers
//----
else if(s == bComboDelete)
{
Object o = cbLista.getSelectedItem();
int z = nazwy.indexOf(o);
if(z>-1)
{
sOceny.remove(z);
nazwy.remove(z);
cbLista.removeItemAt(z);
System.out.println("Oceny w bloku delete(if)"+oceny.toString());
}
System.out.println("Oceny w bloku delete(poza if)"+oceny.toString());
}
else if(s == cbLista)
{
Object o = cbLista.getSelectedItem();
int z = nazwy.indexOf(o);
if(z>-1)
{
tNazwa.setText(nazwy.get(z));
oceny.clear();
oceny=arrayStringToIntegerArrayList(sOceny.get(z));
tOceny.setText(oceny.toString().substring(1, oceny.toString().length()-1));
System.out.println("Oceny w bloku CB"+oceny.toString());
}
else
{
tNazwa.setText("");
tOceny.setText("");
oceny.clear();
}
}
Here is my array of Strings :
String[] selection = { "0 + 0", "0.88 + 0.21", "-0.21 + 0.77", "-1.23 + 0.03" };
I then create a JComboBox:
JComboBox<String> jcb = new JComboBox<String>(selection);
jcb.addActionListener(new ComboListener());
Here is the ActionListener :
public class ComboListener implements ActionListener {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
JComboBox<String> cb = (JComboBox<String>) e.getSource();
String selection = (String) cb.getSelectedItem();
String[] parts = selection.split(" + ");
System.out.println(parts[0]);
System.out.println(parts[1]);
}
}
Here's what is printed out when I select an option, say 0.88 + 0.21:
0.88 + 0.21

Anyone got any idea where I'm going wrong? My logic of splitting up the string seems to be fine. Many thanks;
split takes a regular expression as parameter. But + is a special regexp character. So you need to escape it:
String[] parts = selection.split(" \\+ ");
Another solution would be to use Pattern.quote:
String[] parts = selection.split(Pattern.quote(" + "));
String[] selection = {"0 + 0", "0.88 + 0.21", "-0.21 + 0.77", "-1.23 + 0.03"};
for(String s : selection){
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(s.split(" \\+ ")));
}
Successfully prints:
[0, 0]
[0.88, 0.21]
[-0.21, 0.77]
[-1.23, 0.03]
As the exception points out, the split doesn't work the way you intended (thought it would):
selection.split(" + ");
The problem is that split takes a regular expression so you need to escape the +
selection.split(" \\+ ");
I'm trying to make a game with Java and in the game, the object that moves side ways called 'Pinko' is supposed to fire small objects called 'pellets' when the up or down arrow keys are pressed. It successfully compiles and runs, but every time I press the up or down arrow key, I get an error saying:

There are seven classes: Application, Constants, JFrame, JPanel, Lovely, Pellet and Pinko.
My code in the move method in Pinko class looks like:
public void move(){
area.x -= speed;
if(area.x <= PINKO_MOVE_AREA_LHS || area.x >= PINKO_MOVE_AREA_RHS){
speed = -speed;
}
if( pelletsFired > 0 ){
for (int i = 0; i < pelletsFired; i++){
pellets[i].move();
}
}
}
And the ActionPerformed method in JPanel class looks like:
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
createLovely();
if(numberOfLovelies > 0){
for (int i = 0; i < numberOfLovelies; i++){
lovelies[i].move();
}
}
pinko.move();
repaint();
}
I have no idea why I keep getting the error mentioned above.
Is there something wrong with the for loop in the move() method in Pinko class??
Any help will be much appreciated...
I would bet the NullPointerException happens here:
pellets[i].move();
Have you tried verifying that:
The Array is initialized
The index referenced contains an instance of what I suppose will be your Pellet class
If you are using an IDE then try to use the debugger to help you understand what is going wrong in your code. Otherwise a few traces can help you debug and nail the problem : Here is the updated code you can try :
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
createLovely();
if(numberOfLovelies > 0){
for (int i = 0; i < numberOfLovelies; i++){
if(lovelies[i] != null )
lovelies[i].move();
else
System.out.println("ERROR: Null lovelies found at an index : " + i);
}
}
if(pinko != null)
pinko.move();
else {
System.out.println("OOPS pinko is null");
}
repaint();
}
I have a list:
JList characterList = new JList(characterListModel);
characterListModel = new DefaultListModel();
String myCharacters[]={"Dean Winchester","Sam Winchester",
"Bobby Singer","Castiel"};
for (String myCharacter : myCharacters) {
((DefaultListModel) characterList.getModel()).addElement(myCharacter);
}
And I've written a method, in a seperate class, to remove a character at a selected index:
public void removeCharacter() {
DefaultListModel characterListModel = ((PlayerContentPane) IViewManager.Util.getInstance()
.getMyContainerPane().getMyPlayerManagerPane().getContentPane())
.getCharacterListModel();
JList characterList = ((PlayerContentPane) IViewManager.Util.getInstance()
.getMyContainerPane().getMyPlayerManagerPane().getContentPane())
.getCharacterList();
int idx = characterList.getSelectedIndex(); //<---line 62
int size = characterListModel.getSize();
characterListModel.remove(idx);
if (size == 0) {
//do nothing
} else {
if (idx == characterListModel.getSize()) {
idx--;
}
characterList.setSelectedIndex(idx);
characterList.ensureIndexIsVisible(idx);
}
}
However when I run it with my button, I get this stack trace:

A lot of the issues I've seen googling this, stem from the line: DefaultListModel characterListModel = ....
And the issue they have is that their creating a new instance of the object, now I''m only new to this whole Java thing, but this shouldn't be an issue with me, as I've not made anythign new, I've just been specific about which object this is.
Please could someone help me untangle myself?
Those 2 lines can create a lot of problems:
DefaultListModel characterListModel = ((PlayerContentPane) IViewManager.Util.getInstance()
.getMyContainerPane().getMyPlayerManagerPane().getContentPane())
.getCharacterListModel();
JList characterList = ((PlayerContentPane) IViewManager.Util.getInstance()
.getMyContainerPane().getMyPlayerManagerPane().getContentPane())
.getCharacterList();
If any of the chained methods return null (for whatever reason) the line will throw a NullPointerException.
I suggest you break them down in several lines and check the value of each call to see where you get the null from.
EDIT
Just realised that line 62 is int idx = characterList.getSelectedIndex();. It means that characterList is null.
If it's failing on the line that you indicated is line 62, then the only object referenced on that line, and therefore the only thing that could be null, is characterList. This implies that your getCharacterList function is returning null. (If the error was inside the getSelectedIndex function, then you would have another line in your stack trace.)
As you didn't post the getCharacterList function, I can't say much more. But you should take a look at that function and see under what circumstances it could return null.
