I want to get the Text data value from Sub-Activity back. And everything is ok. But when the Sub-activity was opened, then I just click back “button” on the phone, it throw an exception error. I found on the android NotePad life-cycle control toturial but It’s hard to understand. Can someone help me? This is my code:
public class SBooks extends ListActivity {
private String title_raw;
private SBooksDbAdapter mDbHelper;
private static final int ACTIVITY_SEARCH = 0;
private static final int SEARCH_ID = Menu.FIRST;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.sbooks_list);
mDbHelper = new SBooksDbAdapter(this);
mDbHelper.open();
}
// Create Menu Option
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
boolean result = super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
menu.add(0, SEARCH_ID, 0, R.string.menu_search);
return result;
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
switch(item.getItemId()){
case SEARCH_ID:
Intent intent = new Intent(this, SBooksSearch.class);
startActivityForResult(intent, ACTIVITY_SEARCH);
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent intent){
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, intent);
switch(requestCode){
case ACTIVITY_SEARCH:
Bundle bundle = intent.getExtras();
title_raw = bundle.getString(SBooksDbAdapter.KEY_TITLE_RAW);
if(title_raw!=null){
Cursor cursor = mDbHelper.searchData(title_raw);
String[] from = new String[]{ SBooksDbAdapter.KEY_ROWID,
SBooksDbAdapter.KEY_TITLE, SBooksDbAdapter.KEY_LYRICS };
int[] to = new int[]{ R.id.id, R.id.title, R.id.lyrics };
SimpleCursorAdapter adapter =
new SimpleCursorAdapter(this, R.layout.sbooks_row, cursor, from, to );
setListAdapter(adapter);
}
}
}
}
This is my Sub-Activity:
public class SBooksSearch extends Activity {
private EditText mTextSearch;
private Button searchButton;
private SBooksDbAdapter mDbHelper;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.sbooks_search);
mTextSearch = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.text_search);
searchButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btn_search);
searchButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
public void onClick(View v){
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.putExtra(SBooksDbAdapter.KEY_TITLE_RAW, mTextSearch.getText().toString());
setResult(RESULT_OK, intent);
finish();
}
});
}
@Override
protected void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState){
super.onSaveInstanceState(outState);
}
@Override
protected void onPause(){
super.onPause();
checkState();
}
@Override
protected void onResume(){
super.onResume();
}
private void checkState() {
} }
This is Logcat:

I think Nate is correct about the NPE at intent.getExtras().
You should be checking the value of your result code before you do anything. You also might want to check to make sure intent.hasExtra(SBooksDbAdapter.KEY_TITLE_RAW) before you get that value. So, something like this:
