If I remember right, starting a service is asynchronous vs. the call to bindService, and so are the callbacks in ServiceConnection.
This means if you call the service on the next line after bindService, you'll get a null pointer exception. Also make sure your Service subclass doesn't fail to instantiate (due to unresolved references or variable initializers). If the object can't be created, it will never get to onCreate. -- Kostya Vasilyev -- http://kmansoft.wordpress.com 30.07.2010 0:21 пользователь "Jeroen Kransen" <[email protected]> написал: This is the only serious logging I get in LogCat. Sometimes after that I get a timeout on the Service, so maybe it is running, I just don't get a reference to it. 07-29 22:17:15.485: WARN/WindowManager(166): Force clearing freeze: AppWindowToken{46ad1860 token=HistoryRecord{465c3f50 nl.kransen.consumption.android/.ViewTrendActivity}} 07-29 22:17:17.625: DEBUG/dalvikvm(166): GC freed 14677 objects / 990168 bytes in 142ms 07-29 22:17:19.921: WARN/ActivityManager(166): Launch timeout has expired, giving up wake lock! 07-29 22:17:20.599: WARN/ActivityManager(166): Activity idle timeout for HistoryRecord{465c3f50 nl.kransen.consumption.android/.ViewTrendActivity} 07-29 22:17:25.685: DEBUG/dalvikvm(11731): GC freed 3116 objects / 286000 bytes in 82ms 07-29 22:17:34.597: DEBUG/AndroidRuntime(1139): Shutting down VM 07-29 22:17:34.597: WARN/dalvikvm(1139): threadid=3: thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0x4001b390) 07-29 22:17:34.606: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): Uncaught handler: thread main exiting due to uncaught exception 07-29 22:17:34.656: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{nl.kransen.consumption.android/ nl.kransen.consumption.android.ViewTrendActivity}: java.lang.NullPointerException 07-29 22:17:34.656: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java: 2596) 07-29 22:17:34.656: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): at android.app.ActivityThread.handleLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java: 2621) 07-29 22:17:34.656: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): at android.app.ActivityThread.access$2200(ActivityThread.java:126) 07-29 22:17:34.656: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): at android.app.ActivityThread$H.handleMessage(ActivityThread.java:1932) 07-29 22:17:34.656: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:99) 07-29 22:17:34.656: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:123) 07-29 22:17:34.656: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:4595) 07-29 22:17:34.656: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) 07-29 22:17:34.656: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:521) 07-29 22:17:34.656: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit $MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:860) 07-29 22:17:34.656: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:618) 07-29 22:17:34.656: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) 07-29 22:17:34.656: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException 07-29 22:17:34.656: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): at nl.kransen.consumption.android.ViewTrendActivity.onCreate(ViewTrendActivity.java: 44) 07-29 22:17:34.656: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): at android.app.Instrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(Instrumentation.java: 1047) 07-29 22:17:34.656: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java: 2544) 07-29 22:17:34.656: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1139): ... 11 more On 29 jul, 22:13, Jeroen Kransen <[email protected]> wrote: > Please help anybody.
