I am trying to get some LinearLayoutsin my onCreateView but my App is crashing with the following message:
23430-23430/? W/System.err﹕ java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.view.View android.view.View.findViewById(int)' on a null object reference
Here is the code:
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_main, container, false);
new Body().execute();
card01 = (LinearLayout) getView().findViewById(R.id.card01);
card02 = (LinearLayout) getView().findViewById(R.id.card02);
card03 = (LinearLayout) getView().findViewById(R.id.card03);
card04 = (LinearLayout) getView().findViewById(R.id.card04);
card05 = (LinearLayout) getView().findViewById(R.id.card05);
card06 = (LinearLayout) getView().findViewById(R.id.card06);
card01.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "Card Clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
return rootView;
}
This is a pure Fragment class. The Activity which calls this Fragment does not contain this Fragment. Am I doing it wrong? Should the Fragmentalways be within the Activity?
As requested the whole AsyncTask:
// AsyncTask
private class Body extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Void> {
@Override

super.onPreExecute();
mProgressDialog = new ProgressDialog(getActivity());
mProgressDialog.setTitle("Fetching your info");
mProgressDialog.setMessage("Loading...");
mProgressDialog.setIndeterminate(false);
mProgressDialog.show();

So, a reference is what a variable of a reference type contains. These variables can point to “nothing”, though, and that's what we call a null reference: a reference that doesn't point to any object. When you try to call a method or another member on the said variable, you got the NullReferenceException.
NullPointerException is thrown when a reference variable is accessed (or de-referenced) and is not pointing to any object. This error can be resolved by using a try-catch block or an if-else condition to check if a reference variable is null before dereferencing it.
What Causes NullPointerException. The NullPointerException occurs due to a situation in application code where an uninitialized object is attempted to be accessed or modified. Essentially, this means the object reference does not point anywhere and has a null value.
Change to
card01 = (LinearLayout) rootView.findViewById(R.id.card01);
card02 = (LinearLayout) rootView.findViewById(R.id.card02);
card03 = (LinearLayout) rootView.findViewById(R.id.card03);
card04 = (LinearLayout) rootView.findViewById(R.id.card04);
card05 = (LinearLayout) rootView.findViewById(R.id.card05);
card06 = (LinearLayout) rootView.findViewById(R.id.card06);
You inflate a layout. the views belong to the inflated layout. So use the view object to initialize views in onCreateView
Fragment is hosted by a Acitvity
You can use getView in onActivityCreated and initialize views
Initialize your TextView's also in onCreateView. Since Asynctask is a inner class you can update ui there
Declare
RobotoTextView date_widget2;
as instance variable
Then in onCreateView
date_widget2= (RobotoTextView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.date02);
You're calling getView() too early - it will only return the view you return yourself from onCreateView().
Inside onCreateView() use the recently inflated rootView instead of getView().
