Question

How to handle NullPointerException in Java? Please provide details so I can get rid of this problem

Answer 1

You should avoid NullPointerExceptions:

if(someObject != null) {
    someObject.doSomething();
} else {
    // do something other
}

Normally you should ensure that the objects which you use are not null.

You also can catch the NullPointerException and except using an if-condition.

try {
    someObject.doSomething();
} catch(NullPointerException e) {
    // do something other
}

Normally there is a bug in your code, when a NullPointerException occurs.
