Question

Hopefully there is not a lot of code, so I apologize for that. I will try to keep it as light as possible, meaning I am not providing everything (though if needed I will). But I was debugging it, and narrowed down the issue to an intent problem in the class I am providing, but I could be wrong. My error is as follows:

6-09 00:47:15.992: E/AndroidRuntime(728): java.lang.RuntimeException: Failure delivering
result ResultInfo{who=null, request=2, result=-1, data=Intent { 
cmp=com.zeroe/.ListManagersActivity (has extras) }} to activity 
{com.zeroe/com.zeroe.MainDisplayActivity}: java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException:
length=2; index=2
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: length=2; index=2

com.zeroe.SmartCalDatabaseHelper.saveManagedEvent(SmartCalDatabaseHelper.java:106)
06-09 03:27:42.732: E/AndroidRuntime(5076): at 
com.zeroe.TimeManager.insertManagedEvents(TimeManager.java:100)

So my error is in the onActivityResult() method, and I am assuming that the issue lies in the fact that it cannot access what I put into it. I am completely guessing here, but it has something to do with how the intent was created out of the scope of the class, and when the method is invoked, it can’t find it, like the intent is not for that context I guess. I have been going through it and I have nothing right now. Been at it for hours, so any hints would be greatly appreciated!

EDIT: I apologize if it wasn’t obvious, but this class was called through an intent from my main activity, and then I call another intent inside the setOnItmClickListener method. Just clarifying. And please do ask me to post anything additional if needed. I just don’t want to over bloat with code.

LATEST EDIT: Ok, so my head is killing me for looking at this for so long, but I have pin pointed exactly where the issue lies. It hangs right after it inserts the last “event” into the database in my DatabaseHelper class. I believe I have commented where that is if you can find it, but the problem, with that is I have no idea why its failing like that. I looked in my database and everything was inserted correctly!! But I believe when once its done, and it goes back to the onActivityResult, it just fails. Thats where I just can’t answer the issue. So it looks like everything is done correctly, but its the very last thing, which is the intent ending that is causing the problem? Am I missing something in my way of handling the end of the intents onActivityResult method?

Answer 1

From your code I understand you are calling AddManagedEventActivity and sending extra String.valueOf(id) with tag manager_id . then in your onActivityResult you want to get data from AddManagedEventActivity ?? i think you should be using intent.getExtra(..) to get data from AddManagedEventActivity this answer is based on your code because you didnt give a short explanation of your purpose 😛 , sorry i couldnt comment, i dont have the rep :/
