尝试在空对象引用上调用虚拟方法“void android.widget.RadioGroup.addView(android.view.View)”

Question

I am a beginner in android and i using java language not Kotlin. Basically i am showing a custom alert dialog after button press, inside an alert dialog there is two radio buttons. But problem is after clicking a button in order to show the custom dialog it gets crashed showing null point exception. Below is the code and log.

CustomDialog.java

public class CustomDialog extends AppCompatDialogFragment {
    @Override
    public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        AlertDialog.Builder builder=new AlertDialog.Builder(getActivity());
        LayoutInflater layoutInflater=getActivity().getLayoutInflater();
        View view=layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.custom_dialog,null);
        builder.setView(view)
                .setTitle("Check Methods");
        final int[] num=getResources().getIntArray(R.array.methods);
        RadioButton radioButton=new RadioButton(getActivity());
        RadioButton radioButton1=new RadioButton(getActivity());
        radioButton.setText("A");
        RadioGroup radioGroup=getActivity().findViewById(R.id.radioGroup);
        radioButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                int kk=num[0];
                int aa=kk;
            }
        });
        radioButton1.setText("B");
        radioGroup.addView(radioButton); //In this line it is showing null point exception and in debugging it is showing "radioGroup" is null
        radioGroup.addView(radioButton1);
        return builder.create();
    }
}

custom_dialog.xml

<LinearLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">
    <RadioGroup
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:id="@+id/radioGroup"/>
</LinearLayout>

methods.xml

<resources>
    <integer-array name="methods">
        <item>0</item>
    </integer-array>
</resources>

MainActivity.Java

btnMethod.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                openDialog(); //to show custom dialog after button press
}}

private void openDialog() {
    CustomDialog customDialog=new CustomDialog();
    customDialog.show(getSupportFragmentManager(),"Custom Dialog");
}

Answer 1

Because RadioGroup is an element of the custom_dialog.xml then you must find RadioGroup from View of custom_dialog.xml , try with the code:

LayoutInflater layoutInflater=getActivity().getLayoutInflater();
View view=layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.custom_dialog,null); //load custom_dialog.xml to View
...
RadioGroup radioGroup=view.findViewById(R.id.radioGroup);     //try to retrieve rarioGroup in custom_dialog.xml

Answer 2

Change this line:

 RadioGroup radioGroup=getActivity().findViewById(R.id.radioGroup);

to:

RadioGroup radioGroup = view.findViewById(R.id.radioGroup);

radioGroup is in your dialog
