Unable to Create ePub - java

I'm trying to create an ePub file in android. Below is my source code.
But I'm getting NullPointerException at
epubWriter.write(book, out);
I've put the cover.png and test1.html in assets folder.
What about *.css,mimetype,META-INF/container.xml,OEBPS/*.opf,*.otf files?
Are they compulsory to build an ePub file?
I'm able to create a file but that is not in proper format I guess as when I pull that file from device and try to view it in Calibre, it doesn't open by giving following error
calibre, version 0.8.38
ERROR: Could not open ebook: File is not a zip file
I'm absolute beginner to ePub development so any help/suggestion would be appreciated.
CreateEPub.java
public class CreateEPub extends Activity {
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
AssetManager assetManager = getAssets();
try {
Book book = new Book();
book.getMetadata().addTitle("Epub test book 1");
book.getMetadata().addAuthor(new Author("Joe", "Tester"));
InputStream is = assetManager.open("cover.png");
book.getMetadata().setCoverImage(new Resource(is, "cover.png"));
// Add Chapter 1
InputStream is1 = assetManager.open("test1.html");
book.addSection("Introduction", new Resource(is1, "chapter1.html"));
EpubWriter epubWriter = new EpubWriter();
epubWriter.write(book, new FileOutputStream("test1_book1.epub"));
Log.v("ePub", "Created");
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

I hope you are using siegmann lib for creating ePub.
Need to include 2 lib files(mandatory)

You are trying to initialize EditTexts before layout loaded.
If you want to get EditText on layout, you must initialize it after layout loaded.
Here is correct code:
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
findViewById(R.id.my_button).setOnClickListener(this);
txtUserName=(EditText)this.findViewById(R.id.editText1);
txtPassword=(EditText)this.findViewById(R.id.editText2);
}
use this
EditText textw3d =(EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText3d);
final String strd3d = textw3d.getText().toString();
I suggest following change in your code.
Just write following lines
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
above
txtUserName=(EditText)this.findViewById(R.id.editText1);
txtPassword=(EditText)this.findViewById(R.id.editText2);
Move the lines where you get the reference to text views after the setContentView function call:
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
findViewById(R.id.my_button).setOnClickListener(this);
txtUserName=(EditText)this.findViewById(R.id.editText1);
txtPassword=(EditText)this.findViewById(R.id.editText2);
}
The fact is you need to call setContentView before initializing any widget in your layout because this is the call that "loads" your layout defined in layout_main.xml file into your activity.
Thanks a lot Guyz,
The issue is resolved now.
Special appreciation to JustWork
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
findViewById(R.id.my_button).setOnClickListener(this);

txtPassword=(EditText)this.findViewById(R.id.editText2);

There two blockers
to using jaudiotagger on Android:
1 - javax.swing
2 - javax.imageio
these two Classes isn't supported by android and jaudiotagger uses them
To solve your problem:
Fix the sources so they don't depend no more on these two JAVAX Classes
Seems like this line causes the crash, because f is null:
Tag tag = f.getTag();
You shouldn't ignore the exception in the way you do, as if you got an exception, you just print something and continue with a bad state (in this case - f is still null)
You still need to check that f != null before you get the tag.
Tag r_tag = null;
File testFile = new File(filename);
MP3File f = null;
try {
f = (MP3File)AudioFileIO.read(testFile);
} catch (CannotReadException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (TagException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (ReadOnlyFileException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (InvalidAudioFrameException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
if(f != null) {
f.getTagOrCreateAndSetDefault();
r_tag = f.getID3v2TagAsv24();
}
return r_tag;

Having trouble passing variable to be displayed on a screen on android

I am having trouble with developing my Android application, I am currently using Eclipse and a Phidget RFID. My aim is to display the ID of the RFID in a piece of text on the Android device.
I have managed to display the ID through a println in the following pieces of code.
package myFood.myFood;
import com.phidgets.*;
import com.phidgets.event.*;
public class RFID {
static String x ="NULL";
public static final Object main(String args[]) throws Exception {
RFIDPhidget rfid;
rfid = new RFIDPhidget();
rfid.openAny();
//Begin the TagGained event, allowing for users to read the RFID values
rfid.addTagGainListener(new TagGainListener()
{
public void tagGained(TagGainEvent oe)
{
Object y = (oe.getValue());
x= y.toString();
}
});
long StartTime,RunTime;
StartTime=System.currentTimeMillis();
do{
RunTime=System.currentTimeMillis();
if (x.equals("NULL")) {
//Continue waiting for input
}
else
StartTime = 10000; //Overload the result so the loop ends
}
while (RunTime-StartTime<5000);
rfid.close();
return x;
}
}
and then.
package myFood.myFood;
public class RFIDresult {
public static final Object main(String args[]) throws Exception {
System.out.println("Results");
Object x = RFID.main(args);
System.out.println(x);
return x;
}
}
However I want the ID to be displayed in a piece of text so I tried to develop the second piece of code into Android.
package myFood.myFood;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class AddFood extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.addfood);
Button mybutton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.Button1);
mybutton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
String[] args = null;
Object x = null;
try {
x = RFID.main(args);
} catch (Exception e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
TextView mytext=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.widget96);
mytext.setText((CharSequence) x);
}
});
}
}
And this just generates a force close. I am a bit of a novice at this and will appreciate all the advice I get.

You need to get myText from 'view' parameter. Try this:
TextView mytext=(TextView)**view**.findViewById(R.id.widget96);

Could anyone give me suggestion ?
Thx
Move the file to the assets folder.
Then retrieve the stream like this InputStream is = getAssets().open("fileName");
if you have assets/mytxtfile.txt
then fileName = "mytxtfile.txt"
What is the file name ? coz as per odcs, if you've a file called 'abcd.txt' in /res/raw, you're suppose to open it using resource ID "R.raw.abcd", i.e. excluding the 3 digit extension.

FileInputStream in Another class?

I'm loading a file that has been saved by another class via the FileOutputstream method. Anyway, I want to load that file in another class, but it either gives me syntax errors or crashes my App.
The only tutorials I could find where they saved and loaded the file in the same class, but I want to load it up in another class and couldn't find how to solve the problem of loading into another class.
Thanks
My Code:
public class LogIn extends Activity implements OnClickListener {

String FILENAME = "userandpass";
#Override

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

eTuser = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.eTuser);
eTpassword = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.eTpassword);
StaySignedIn = (CheckBox) findViewById(R.id.Cbstay);
bSubmit = (Button) findViewById(R.id.bLogIn);
bSubmit.setOnClickListener(this);
File file = getBaseContext().getFileStreamPath(FILENAME);
if (file.exists()) {
Intent i = new Intent(LogIn.this, ChatService.class);
startActivity(i);
}
// if if file exist close bracket
try {
fos = openFileOutput(FILENAME, Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
fos.close();
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} // end of catch bracket
catch (IOException e) {

e.printStackTrace();
} // end of catch
} // create ends here
public void onClick(View v) {

switch (v.getId()) {

The FILENAME string in the ChatService class is null. So you get a NullPointerException when you try to load a file using fis = openFileInput(FILENAME).
Also, your read loop throws away the data:
while (fis.read(dataArray) != -1)
;
It needs to collect the data and set the value of your collected String.
The stack trace tells you everything you need to know.
The error is a NullPointerException (meaning that you pass a null reference to a method expecting a non null reference, or that you call a method on a null reference).
The error occurs inside some android code (ContextWrapper.openFileInput()), which is called by your ChatService.onCreate() method, on line 25.
The line 25 is the following line:
fis = openFileInput(FILENAME);
So the error is clear: FILENAME is null. You haven't initialized it before this method is called.
I'm not sure about your program flow and if your two classes are running in the same thread, but it looks like you have a program flow issue. You are trying to open the file and getting a NullPointerException. Make sure the file is created and you have the correct reference to it before attempting to read.
If they are running in separate threads then you might try something like this:
try {
int waitTries=1;
fis = openFileInput(FILENAME);
while(fis.available()<EXPECTEDSIZE && waitTries++<10)
Tread.sleep(50);
}
If you know how large the file should be (EXPECTEDSIZE is some constant you will set), then this may be what you are looking for.
