清单 <Class> 变量即使分配了值也返回null

Question

I have a java code file,

public class PropertyRequestService {

static String result;
PropertiesList localProperty = new PropertiesList();
List<PropertiesList> Properties;


public List<PropertiesList> getAllPropertiesStuff() {
    JSONArray json = null;
    try {

        HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
        HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost(
                "Given URL");
        List<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>(2);
        nameValuePairs
                .add(Passing parameter));

        httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs));
        HttpResponse response = client.execute(httppost);

        // HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
        // if (entity != null) {

        /*
         * result = EntityUtils.toString(entity); Log.i("RESPONSE=",
         * result);
         */
        // List<PropertiesList> tst=(List<PropertiesList>)response;

        ArrayList<String> jsonstring = getJSONString(response);

        System.out.println("jsonString : " + jsonstring);
        json = new JSONArray(jsonstring);       

        localProperty.angle=30;
            localProperty.PropertyID =Integer.parseInt(json.getString(0));
            localProperty.Latitude =Double.parseDouble(json.getString(2));
            localProperty.Longitude = Double.parseDouble(json.getString(3));
            localProperty.PropertyPrice = Integer.parseInt(json.getString(4));
            localProperty.PropertyAddress = json.getString(1);
            localProperty.listfrom=0;

            Properties.add(localProperty);


    } catch (Exception e1) {
        e1.printStackTrace();
    }

    return Properties;
}

public ArrayList<String> getJSONString(HttpResponse response) {

    try {
        HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();

        String result = EntityUtils.toString(entity);
        InputStream stream = new ByteArrayInputStream((result.replace("&",
                " ")).getBytes("UTF-8"));
        DocumentBuilder builder = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance()
                .newDocumentBuilder();

        Document doc = builder.parse(stream);

        NodeList n1 = doc.getElementsByTagName("PropertyID");
        NodeList n2 = doc.getElementsByTagName("Address");
        NodeList n3 = doc.getElementsByTagName("Lat");
        NodeList n4 = doc.getElementsByTagName("Lng");
        NodeList n5 = doc.getElementsByTagName("Price");
        Node nn1 = n1.item(0);
        Node nn2 = n2.item(0);
        Node nn3 = n3.item(0);
        Node nn4 = n4.item(0);
        Node nn5 = n5.item(0);
        String str1 = nn1.getFirstChild().getNodeValue();
        String str2 = nn2.getFirstChild().getNodeValue();
        String str3 = nn3.getFirstChild().getNodeValue();
        String str4 = nn4.getFirstChild().getNodeValue();
        String str5 = nn5.getFirstChild().getNodeValue();

        ArrayList<String> nodes = new ArrayList<String>();
        nodes.add(str1);
        nodes.add(str2);
        nodes.add(str3);
        nodes.add(str4);
        nodes.add(str5);

        System.out.println("Node value : " + nodes);
        return nodes;
    } catch (ParserConfigurationException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (SAXException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IllegalStateException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    return null;
}

}

and PropertiesList class,

public class PropertiesList {

 public int angle;
 public int PropertyID;
 public int PropertyPrice;
 public String PropertyAddress;
 public Double Latitude;
 public Double Longitude;
 public static int listfrom;
}

and from the activity class I call like this,

   PropertyRequestService properties=new PropertyRequestService();
    propertyRSList=  properties.getAllPropertiesStuff();

The problem is that, near the line "Properties.add(localProperty);", I did observe that Properties variable is null and Exception is caught. There is no syntax error or logical error according to me. Did I miss anything or any wrong assignment?

This is my logcat,

Please suggest me and correct me!! Thanks in advance!!

Answer 1

You need to instantiate Properties before you access it. Use:

List<PropertiesList> Properties = new ArrayList<>();

instead of:

List<PropertiesList> Properties;

BTW, according to java naming conventions, variables should start with lower case letter, so it is better to use properties instead.

Answer 2

You have not initialized the List<Properties> Properties . You have just created a reference to it.

List<Properties> Properties = new ArrayList<Properties>();

Answer 3

You have just defined a reference Properties which will point to object of type ArrayList. You also need to create the actual object using the new() operator.

List<PropertiesList> Properties = new ArrayList<>();

Then you can add your data in it.

Properties.add(localProperty);

Take care of your namings . Variable,functions must be in camel case ie starts with a small letter and subsequent words start with capital letter. Words starting with caps are generally names of classes.
