Question

am going to read 5- Contacts , So i get this code and go smooth and no error occurred,
But when i add this two line for save the Name and contact to use them later , this exception appeared !!

this is the code :

    Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(
            ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_URI, null, null, null, null);
    while (cursor.moveToNext()) {
        String contactId = cursor.getString(cursor
                .getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts._ID));
        String hasPhone = cursor
                .getString(cursor
                        .getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.HAS_PHONE_NUMBER));
        name = cursor.getString(cursor
                .getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.DISPLAY_NAME));

        // You know it has a number so now query it like this
        Cursor phones1 = getContentResolver().query(
                ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI,
                null,
                ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID + " = "
                        + contactId, null, null);
        if (count > 5)
            break;
        while (phones1.moveToNext()) {
            phoneNumber = phones1
                    .getString(phones1
                            .getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.NUMBER));


        }

        phones1.close();


        Toast.makeText(this,
                contactId + " __ " + name + " # :  " + phoneNumber,
                Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        Contact2[count] = name;
        Numbers2[count] = phoneNumber;
        count++;

    }

the two statements cause the exception !!

Contact2[count] = name;
Numbers2[count] = phoneNumber;

however the code go well without these statements .

this are the logcat window

Answer 1

It looks like you’re getting a Null Pointer Exception, probably because you haven’t initialized your arrays Contact2 and Numbers2.

Contact2 = new String[5];
