I am trying to use Intent
to call a new Activity
from MainActivity
. And I am trying to pass some data through Intent Extras
. Below is my code for calling new Activity
.
public void tabSelector2(View v) {
switch (v.getId()) {
case R.id.veg_tab:
currentDB = "veg";
break;
case R.id.meat_tab :
currentDB = "meat";
break;
default:
break;
}
Intent tabSelect = new Intent(this, TabSelector.class);
tabSelect.putExtra("db_passed", currentDB);
startActivity(tabSelect);
}
Inside onCreate
for Activity2
I try to use the variable currentDB
that I passed. The variable is passed correctly. I printed the value using System.out.println()
and logcat
produces correct output. But I am getting a NullPointerException
when I am trying to use the value. Code snippet for onCreate
is below :
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setTheme(android.R.style.Theme_Holo); // (for Android Built In Theme)
mydb = new DBHelper(this);
Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras();
if (extras != null) {
currentDB = extras.getString("db_passed");
}
System.out.println(currentDB); // Printing here, correct value
currentList2 = mydb.getAllItemsAsCollection(currentDB); // Works Perfectly
itemAdder2.setDbName(currentDB); // Produces an error :(
itemAdder2.updateData2(currentList2);
switch (currentDB) {
case "veg" :
setContentView(R.layout.vegetable);
currentListView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.veg_list);
break;
case "meat" :
setContentView(R.layout.meat_drawer);
currentListView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.meat_list);
break;
default:
break;
}
currentListView.setAdapter(itemAdder2);
this.getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_ALWAYS_HIDDEN);
}
The corresponding setDBName
method is as simple as it gets.
public void setDbName(String dbName){
this.dbName = dbName;
}
I am getting the following error while runtime...

Please help. Let me know if you guys need anything extra.
Your itemAdder2
variable is not initialized. Attempting to invoke a method on a null reference causes the NPE you're seeing.
Yout adapter object is null - itemAdder2. You should instantiate him like this"
itemAdder2 = new YourAdapter(Some params here);
