played around with the original notepad example. split the code into 2 apps as follows: app NotePad(com.google.android.notepad) contains NoteEditor.java, NotesList.java and TitleEditor.java. app NoteProvider(com.google.provider) contains NotePad.java and NotePadProvider.java.
installed the NoteProvider using adb, then launched NotePad from eclipse. got to the main screen(empty notes list) fine but when "Add note" is pressed, i get an error "Unable to start activity ComponentInfo {com.google.android.notepad/ com.google.android.notepad.NoteEditor}: java.lang.NullPointerException." what am i missing here, pls help. here is the logcat just in case: I/ActivityManager( 517): Starting activity: Intent { action=android.intent.action.INSERT data=content:// com.google.provider.NotePad/notes comp={com.google.android.notepad/ com.google.android.notepad.NoteEditor} } D/ActivityThread( 633): Performing launch of ActivityRecord{40047b00 [EMAIL PROTECTED] {com.google.android.notepad/ com.google.android.notepad.NoteEditor}} D/dalvikvm( 633): Exception Ljava/lang/RuntimeException; from ActivityThread.java:1758 not caught locally D/dalvikvm( 633): Exception Ljava/lang/RuntimeException; from ZygoteInit.java:1553 not caught locally D/AndroidRuntime( 633): Shutting down VM W/dalvikvm( 633): threadid=3: thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0x4000fdf8) E/AndroidRuntime( 633): Uncaught handler: thread Main exiting due to uncaught exception E/AndroidRuntime( 633): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.google.android.notepad/ com.google.android.notepad.NoteEditor}: java.lang.NullPointerException E/AndroidRuntime( 633): at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java: 1758) E/AndroidRuntime( 633): at android.app.ActivityThread.handleLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java: 1770) E/AndroidRuntime( 633): at android.app.ActivityThread.access $1500(ActivityThread.java:99) E/AndroidRuntime( 633): at android.app.ActivityThread $H.handleMessage(ActivityThread.java:1271) E/AndroidRuntime( 633): at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:80) E/AndroidRuntime( 633): at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java: 91) E/AndroidRuntime( 633): at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:3052) E/AndroidRuntime( 633): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) E/AndroidRuntime( 633): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:356) E/AndroidRuntime( 633): at android.os.ZygoteInit $MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:1547) E/AndroidRuntime( 633): at android.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:1445) E/AndroidRuntime( 633): at android.dalvik.NativeStart.main(Native Method) E/AndroidRuntime( 633): Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException E/AndroidRuntime( 633): at android.content.ContentProviderProxy.insert(ContentProviderNative.java: 355) E/AndroidRuntime( 633): at android.content.ContentResolver.insert(ContentResolver.java:287) E/AndroidRuntime( 633): at com.google.android.notepad.NoteEditor.onCreate(NoteEditor.java:131) E/AndroidRuntime( 633): at android.app.Instrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(Instrumentation.java: 847) E/AndroidRuntime( 633): at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java: 1728) E/AndroidRuntime( 633): ... 11 more I/Process ( 517): Sending signal.
