I looked for a couple of questions asked on Stack Overflow for sending a int to my MainActivity and displaying it on my TextView. But trying to initialize activity or context don't work.. The latest error I get is this:
FATAL EXCEPTION: AsyncTask #1 Process: com.dahlstore.jsonparsingdemo, PID: 32123 java.lang.RuntimeException: An error occurred while executing doInBackground() at android.os.AsyncTask$3.done(AsyncTask.java:309) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.finishCompletion(FutureTask.java:354) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.setException(FutureTask.java:223) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:242) at android.os.AsyncTask$SerialExecutor$1.run(AsyncTask.java:234) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1113) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:588) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:818) Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.content.Context android.app.Activity.getApplicationContext()' on a null object reference at com.dahlstore.jsonparsingdemo.JSONTask.doInBackground(JSONTask.java:63) at com.dahlstore.jsonparsingdemo.JSONTask.doInBackground(JSONTask.java:21) at android.os.AsyncTask$2.call(AsyncTask.java:295) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:237) at android.os.AsyncTask$SerialExecutor$1.run(AsyncTask.java:234) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1113) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:588) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:818) 09-17 18:31:37.015 32123-32152/com.dahlstore.jsonparsingdemo E/Surface: getSlotFromBufferLocked: unknown buffer: 0xabea80a0
Could anybody explain why I can't send my intent even though I use Activity.
