Hi everybody, I need help :)
I have an Activity which tries to start a Service (in the same process). It never succeeds... I recieve the following NullPointerException 12-13 11:39:06.158: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): Uncaught handler: thread main exiting due to uncaught exception 12-13 11:39:06.178: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to instantiate service com.ex.LocalService: java.lang.NullPointerException 12-13 11:39:06.178: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): at android.app.ActivityThread.handleCreateService(ActivityThread.java: 2321) 12-13 11:39:06.178: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): at android.app.ActivityThread.access$2800(ActivityThread.java:112) 12-13 11:39:06.178: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): at android.app.ActivityThread$H.handleMessage(ActivityThread.java:1631) 12-13 11:39:06.178: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:88) 12-13 11:39:06.178: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:123) 12-13 11:39:06.178: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:3742) 12-13 11:39:06.178: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) 12-13 11:39:06.178: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:515) 12-13 11:39:06.178: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run (ZygoteInit.java:739) 12-13 11:39:06.178: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:497) 12-13 11:39:06.178: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) 12-13 11:39:06.178: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException 12-13 11:39:06.178: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): at android.content.ContextWrapper.getSystemService(ContextWrapper.java: 323) 12-13 11:39:06.178: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): at com.ex.LocalService.<init>(LocalService.java:47) 12-13 11:39:06.178: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): at java.lang.Class.newInstance(Native Method) 12-13 11:39:06.178: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): at android.app.ActivityThread.handleCreateService(ActivityThread.java: 2318) 12-13 11:39:06.178: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(324): ... 10 more My onCreate method only calls the parent's onCreate..... the service is being started in the following way: startService(new Intent(MyActivity.this, LocalService.class)); Any suggestions/ideas will make me very glad....
