whit my Activity I display a form like this:

    <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<TextView android:id="@+id/textView1" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
    android:text="@string/add_series" android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"></TextView>
<EditText android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_width="match_parent" android:id="@+id/series_name">
    <requestFocus></requestFocus>
</EditText>
<Button android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:id="@+id/button_save"
    android:layout_width="match_parent" android:text="@string/save"></Button>
</LinearLayout>

I have also a method to get this value.

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.add_series);

    final wecDatabasesManager databaseHelper = new wecDatabasesManager(this);

    final Button button_save = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button_save);
    button_save.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(View v) {
            final EditText series_name = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.series_name);  
            String name = series_name.getText().toString();

            databaseHelper.addSeries(null, name, 2);
        }
    });
}

In my DatabasesManager class i have this method.

public void addSeries(SQLiteDatabase db, String name, int publisher_id)
{
    ContentValues v = new ContentValues();
    v.put(wecSeriesTable.NAME, name);
    v.put(wecSeriesTable.PUBLISHER_ID, publisher_id);
    db.insert(wecSeriesTable.TABLE_NAME, null, v);
}

But when i try to save a form value i have this error:

    This is the important information from your StackTrace:

    09-13 22:16:57.761: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(2811): java.lang.NullPointerException

09-13 22:16:57.761: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(2811):     at zepod.whatelsecomics.databases.wecDatabasesManager.addSeries(wecDatabasesManager.java:102)

    Whatever object(s) your accessing at line 102 in the addSeries method of wecDatabasesManager could potentially be null. Post the addSeries method code if you are unable to quickly figure this one out

    EDIT

    You’re passing a null to addSeries where it’s expecting an instance of SqliteDatabase

    databaseHelper.addSeries(null, name, 2);

    and then:

    public void addSeries(SQLiteDatabase db, String name, int publisher_id)
{
    ...
    db.insert(wecSeriesTable.TABLE_NAME, null, v);
}

    db is null
