Error: java.lang.NullPointerException, need any help on getting it to work

Time:11-04

i'm getting this error each time the button Medir is pressed, everything works with the rest

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.content.pm.ApplicationInfo android.content.Context.getApplicationInfo()' on a null object reference

this is the MainActivity code:

    package com.example.kotlincalcinsu

    import android.content.Intent
    import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity
    import android.os.Bundle
    import android.widget.Button
    import android.widget.TextView

    class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
        override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
            setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

            val admin = AdminSQLiteOpenHelper(this, "AppDB", null, 1)
            val bd = admin.readableDatabase

            val name = bd.rawQuery("SELECT nombre FROM usuario", null).toString()
            val weight = bd.rawQuery("SELECT peso FROM usuario", null).toString()
            bd.close()

            //declarando TextView
            val nombre = findViewById<TextView>(R.id.Nombre)
            val peso = findViewById<TextView>(R.id.Peso)
            //declarando botones
            val medir = findViewById<Button>(R.id.medir)
            val historial = findViewById<Button>(R.id.historial)
            val registro = findViewById<Button>(R.id.registro)

            if (name.isNotEmpty() && weight.isNotEmpty()){
                nombre.text = name
                peso.text = weight
            }

            medir.setOnClickListener {
                val intent = Intent(this, Medir::class.java)
                startActivity(intent)
            }
            historial.setOnClickListener {
                val intent = Intent(this, Historial::class.java)
                startActivity(intent)
            }
            registro.setOnClickListener {
                val intent = Intent(this, Registro::class.java)
                startActivity(intent)
            }
        }

everything appears to be right according to teachers and other people that have take a look at it, but it just keeps throwing that error and crashing the app. Any help is welcome and thanks beforehand

i have already tried different computers Mac and Windows, tried with different versions of Android and Android Studio. I rewrite the code to check if there was some typing error or just something wrong with the files, but nothing worked.

CodePudding user response:

Anything like these lines:

private var bluetoothAdapter: BluetoothAdapter = BluetoothAdapter.getDefaultAdapter()

val selectDeviceList = findViewById<ListView>(R.id.selectorLV)

in an Activity will cause a crash. You cannot call Activity functions safely in property initializers, because the Activity hasn't been set up until onCreate() is called. Property initializers are called before onCreate.

You either need to change these to lateinit and initialize them in onCreate, or you can turn them into Lazy properties -- replace = /*...*/ with by lazy { /*...*/ }.

For future reference, the stack trace gives you the exact line of code that causes the problem. If you have issues in the future that you cannot solve, you need to post the stack trace and the code that is referenced by the stack trace.
