I am just trying to share a text to Twitter from my Android App using twitter4j. First of all what i tried is that i made a new project & in that this particular code was working successfully !
Then i mixed that particular code in my application, login into twitter was done successfully and after that what i found is that this particular code was generating an exception(null pointer).
accessToken = twitter.getOAuthAccessToken(requestToken, verifier);
requestToken before going to browser was got successfully !
Code to login :
class logintwt extends AsyncTask<String, String, String> {
ProgressDialog pDialog;
/**
* Before starting background thread Show Progress Dialog
* */
@Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
super.onPreExecute();
pDialog = new ProgressDialog(Result.this);
pDialog.setMessage("Loading...");
pDialog.setCancelable(true);
pDialog.show();
}
/**
* getting Places JSON
* */
protected String doInBackground(String... args) {
ConfigurationBuilder builder = new ConfigurationBuilder();
builder.setOAuthConsumerKey(TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY);
builder.setOAuthConsumerSecret(TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET);
Configuration configuration = builder.build();
TwitterFactory factory = new TwitterFactory(configuration);
twitter = factory.getInstance();
try {
requestToken = twitter.getOAuthRequestToken(TWITTER_CALLBACK_URL);
} catch (TwitterException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
/**
* After completing background task Dismiss the progress dialog and show
* the data in UI Always use runOnUiThread(new Runnable()) to update UI
* from background thread, otherwise you will get error
* **/
protected void onPostExecute(String file_url) {
pDialog.dismiss();
// dismiss the dialog after getting all products
Intent nint=new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(requestToken.getAuthenticationURL()));
nint.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
getApplicationContext().startActivity(nint);
}
}
And code After login :
class afterlog extends AsyncTask<String, String, String> {
ProgressDialog pDialog;
/**
* Before starting background thread Show Progress Dialog
* */
@Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
super.onPreExecute();
pDialog = new ProgressDialog(Result.this);
pDialog.setMessage("Loading...");
pDialog.setCancelable(true);
pDialog.show();
}
/**
* getting Places JSON
* */
protected String doInBackground(String... args) {
try {
accessToken = twitter.getOAuthAccessToken(
requestToken, verifier); //ERROR this line
Log.i("accessToken value",accessToken.toString());
twitter.updateStatus(" good afernoon !!!! djfkdf jdk !!!!!!!!!");
} catch (TwitterException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Log.v("message",""+twitter.toString());
return twitter.toString();
}
/**
* After completing background task Dismiss the progress dialog and show
* the data in UI Always use runOnUiThread(new Runnable()) to update UI
* from background thread, otherwise you will get error
* **/
protected void onPostExecute(String file_url) {
pDialog.dismiss();
}
}

I didn't understand what did the answer in this question say: Why the method getOAuthAccessToken always fire the exception in the twitter4j api?
So,if anyone can explain better to solve this type of problem then pls help...
