Hi..
Just a general tip:
It's better to put the use/printout within the try statement (or exit
the function etc if it catches the error), as pInfo (in this case)
would be null if the info isn't found, and then you get a
NullException instead...
so, either:
try {
pInfo = getPackageManager().getPackageInfo("com.beanie.test",
PackageManager.GET_META_DATA);
System.out.println(pInfo.versionCode);
} catch (NameNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
or:
try {
pInfo = getPackageManager().getPackageInfo("com.beanie.test",
PackageManager.GET_META_DATA);
} catch (NameNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return; /* return false; or return null; */
}
System.out.println(pInfo.versionCode);
Just something to remember, so you don't introduce one extra
(unnecessary) possible exception/bug, that you need to catch, while
catching another exception...
Regards
Chris
