使用Android和Firebird JDBC创建连接

Question

I'm having a problem in create an android connection with Firebird database, the app is crashing whenever executes the line of connection.

Code:

cod = ""+edit[0].getText();
cod = String.format("%14s", cod).replace(' ', '0');
String query = "SELECT DS_PRO FROM PROD WHERE CD_PRO = '"+cod+"'";
try{
    Class.forName("org.firebirdsql.jdbc.FBDriver").newInstance();
    System.err.println("jdbc created");
}catch(Exception e){
    System.err.println("Cannot create connection");
}

try{
    Properties props = new Properties();
    props.setProperty("user", "POINTER");
    props.setProperty("password", "pwdb");
    props.setProperty("encoding", "WIN1252");
    try{
        System.err.println("creating connection");
        java.sql.Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:firebirdsql:192.168.0.196/3050:C:/Fenix/FENIX.FDB",props);
        System.err.println("created connection");
    }
    catch(Exception e){
        System.err.println("error in connection to server");
        System.err.println(e.getMessage());
    }
}
catch(Exception e){
    System.err.println("error in connection to server");
    System.err.println(e.getMessage());
}

This is the message in logcat of eclipse:

somebody have any information of this error?

Answer 1

The problem is with the properties files in the assets folder, as suggested by Mark. In the initializer

props = loadProperties("assets/isc_dpb_types.properties");

returns null, which causes the NullReferenceException some lines below. In Android Studio version 2.2 the solution is to add
assets.srcDirs = ['assets'] here:

android {
compileSdkVersion 24
buildToolsVersion "24.0.0"
defaultConfig {
 ....
}
buildTypes {
    release {
       ...
    }
}
sourceSets {
    main {
        assets.srcDirs = ['assets']
    }
}

}

in the project graddle file. And then the project structure looks like this:
