Call B4A Funktions in a Class

[kkolle]

Hi,
Sometimes i have a problem to call StartActivity or CallSubDelayed2 from my Class.

In my "Main" Activity_Create i Initialize my Class.

I have a Funkton thet calls StartActivity(myActiviti) and it works, but sometimes i get NullPointerException when StartActivity(myActiviti) called

Sombody an idea?

For Example like this code:

'Main
Sub Globals
 Dim myStops As CStops

end Sub

Sub Activity_Create
 myStops.Initialize
end Sub

Sub DoSomething
 myStops.DoThings
end Sub

'class CStops

Sub DoThings
 'some Code...
 'some Code...
 'some Code...
'open Activity get sometimes NullPointerException 
 StartActivity(myActiviti) 
end Sub

Can you post the full stack trace from the logs when this happens?

I assume that there is an activity module named myActiviti.

What is myActiviti? How is it declared?

Hallo Erel,

in my App i call a funkton in a main Activity as follow:

I send you my real code ACTEquipmentList is an Activity Modul

' call in Main
Sub qacActiveStop_Click (Position As Int, ActionItemID As Int)
 Select Database.GetActiveStopState(Database.GetActiveStopId)
   Case BuildConfig.OrderStatus.Started
      SetActiveStopState(BuildConfig.OrderStatus.Arrived)
   Case BuildConfig.OrderStatus.Arrived
           'here i call the funktion FinishStop from a class Stops 
           myStops.FinishStop(Database.GetActiveStopId, Database.mySQL)
 End Select
End Sub

'Class Stops: funkton FinishStop
Sub FinishStop(StopId As String, mySQL As SQL)
   If BuildConfig.CurrentBuildConfiguration = BuildConfig.BuildConfiguration.MSM Then
      Dim modulName As String
      Dim suppMustFill As Boolean
      Dim Cursor As Cursor
      modulName = GetModulByFinishOrder(StopId, mySQL)
      If modulName.Length > 0 Then
         Select modulName
            Case "16"
               ACTEquipmentList.SelectedStopId = StopId
                                        'out here is th stack trace (from this call)
               StartActivity(ACTEquipmentList)
               SetFinishState(StopId, "16", "1", mySQL)
               Return
            Case "10"
            
         End Select
      End If

      suppMustFill = GetSuppMustFill(StopId, mySQL)
      If suppMustFill = True Then
         Return
      End If
      If CheckSig(StopId, mySQL) = False Then
         SetActiveStopState(BuildConfig.OrderStatus.Ready)
      Else

         ACTSignature.Context = "STOP"
         StartActivity(ACTSignature)
      End If
   Else 
         SetActiveStopState(BuildConfig.OrderStatus.Ready)
   End If
End Sub

I'm sorry but it very hard to understand this code as there are many missing pieces.

What is ACTSignature? Can you upload the complete project?

 

[kkolle]

I am sorry Erel but I can't upload a complete Project.

The Problem is, sometimes when i call StartActivity(ACTEquipmentList) or StartActivity(ACTSignature), i get the Exception you can see in the stack trace.

ACTEquipmentList is an Activity that include a list of items to select one of them.

ACTSignature is an Activity to get signatures

cstops_finishstop (java line: 145) the line in java file -> c.StartActivity(getActivityBA(),(Object)(_actequipmentlist.getObject()));

 

[Erel]

How are you initializing the class?

 

[kkolle]

Hallo Erel

here my initializing in steps:

'Main  Activity
Sub Globals
 ...
 Dim myStops As CStops
 ...
End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
 ...
 myStops.Initialize
 ...
End Sub

 

[Erel]

If you like you can send me your project by mail with the steps required to reproduce it and I will check it.

Hi,

I solved the Problem. The problem was initializing in Activity_Create. If Activity_Create was called second time (for example rotate the device) i get the exception.
