Question

I want to retrieve data from database and display it on LOG, here my code:

 String dd = "1/23/2013";

  String sp = "Sky Storm";

 Log.d("Checking",db.getMeterNUmber2(dd,sp).toString());

And getMeterNUmber2 are in DBAdapter and the data that im looking for are in database, so I just want to retrieve it.

My DB Adapter :

public ArrayList<String> getMeterNUmber2(String date , String Vname) throws SQLException {    

    String[] whereArgs = new String[]{date,Vname}; 

    Cursor mcursor = db.rawQuery("SELECT MeterNumber FROM " + SCAN_TABLE + " WHERE  Date = ? AND VendorName = ? ",whereArgs);

    ArrayList<String> results = new ArrayList<String>();
    while (mcursor.moveToNext()) {
        results.add(mcursor.getString(0));
    }

    return results;

}

I’m getting error in logcat:

01-24 19:57:13.590: E/AndroidRuntime(11662): FATAL EXCEPTION: main
01-24 19:57:13.590: E/AndroidRuntime(11662): java.lang.NullPointerException

Answer 1

i had the same problem as you and when i look at your log cat

 java.lang.NullPointerException ,

It returning null value , so that means It does not read into your Database,

please check if you have opened your database e.g : db.open() and close
