调用另一个类时，Android无法启动活动componentinfo错误

Question

Im writting an app which calls another class, but everytime I do, i keep getting the "unable to start activity componentinfo" error.

the code is below:

  package android.Maps;


public class HomeScreen extends MapActivity {
    @Override
    protected boolean isRouteDisplayed() {
        return false;
    }

    MapController mapController;
    MyPositionOverlay positionOverlay;

    GeneticAlgorithm2 GA2;
    //private MyPositionOverlay popListHome;
    //public static int populationSizeHome;



    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        //popListHome = new MyPositionOverlay(null, null);

        //populationSizeHome = popListHome.overlayItemList();

        //positionOverlay.overlayItemList


        MapView myMapView = (MapView)findViewById(R.id.myMapView);
        //myMapView.setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
        mapController = myMapView.getController();

        myMapView.setSatellite(true);
        myMapView.setStreetView(true);
        myMapView.displayZoomControls(false);

        mapController.setZoom(17);

        Drawable marker=getResources().getDrawable(android.R.drawable.star_big_on);
        int markerWidth = marker.getIntrinsicWidth();
        int markerHeight = marker.getIntrinsicHeight();
        marker.setBounds(0, markerHeight, markerWidth, 0);

        //Call Genetic Algorithm
        GA2 = new GeneticAlgorithm2();


        // Add the MyPositionOverlay
        positionOverlay = new MyPositionOverlay(marker, HomeScreen.this);
        List<Overlay> overlays = myMapView.getOverlays();
        overlays.add(positionOverlay);

        LocationManager locationManager;
        String context = Context.LOCATION_SERVICE;
        locationManager = (LocationManager)getSystemService(context);

        Criteria criteria = new Criteria();
        criteria.setAccuracy(Criteria.ACCURACY_FINE);
        criteria.setAltitudeRequired(false);
        criteria.setBearingRequired(false);
        criteria.setCostAllowed(true);
        criteria.setPowerRequirement(Criteria.POWER_LOW);
        String provider = locationManager.getBestProvider(criteria, true);

        Location location = locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(provider);

        updateWithNewLocation(location);

        locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(provider, 2000, 10,   
                locationListener);


        //GeneticAlgorithm2 GA2 = new GeneticAlgorithm2();

        final Button buttonRun = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnRun);
        buttonRun.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            public void onClick(View v) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                Context context = getApplicationContext();
                CharSequence text = "Running";
                int duration = Toast.LENGTH_SHORT;

                Toast toast = Toast.makeText(context, text, duration);
                toast.show();



                //This statement works
                System.out.println(positionOverlay.overlayItemList.size());

                Iterator<OverlayItem> iter = positionOverlay.overlayItemList.iterator();
                System.out.println(positionOverlay.overlayItemList);
                while (iter.hasNext()){
                    Object element = iter.next();
                    System.out.println(element + "");
                }

                //GeneticAlgorithm2 GA2;
                //GA2.start();
                GA2.test();



            }// End of onClick
        });

    }// End of onCreate

}

and from this class im trying to call this class:

    package android.Maps;


public class GeneticAlgorithm2  {

    public static int populationSize;
    private MyPositionOverlay popList;

    public int route[] = new int[populationSize +1];
    int pointLimit;
    int iterations;
    double mutationRate = 0.10;

    //Canvas C = null;
    //Dimension CD;
    //Label L;
    //Graphics GC;
    //int Initial_population = 800;
    int matingPopulation = populationSize/2;
    int favPopulation = matingPopulation/2;
    int numOfCities = 30;
    int cutLength = numOfCities/5;
    //double Mutation_probability = 0.10;

    double loops=1.5;
    int Epoch;
    double xlow = 0.0;
    double ylow = 0.0;
    double xhigh = 100.0;
    double yhigh = 100.0;
    double xrange, yrange;
    double minCost = 5.0;
    double timeStart,timeEnd;
    Thread T = null;
    double costPerfect = 0.;

    boolean started = false;

    City [] cities;
    Chromosome [] chromosomes;







    public GeneticAlgorithm2() {

        // Calling My Position Overlay class
        popList = new MyPositionOverlay(null, null);

        //Sets the population size to the number of markers
        populationSize = popList.overlayItemList.size();
        //start();
        test();

    }



    public void test(){
        System.out.println("test");
    }




}//End of Genetic Algorithm 2 class

please help

Looks to me like a NullPointerException in some of your code that isn't part of the snippet.

05-30 15:33:33.161: E/AndroidRuntime(916): Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
