NullPointerException on cursor RawQuery - Android

I am trying to create a db, insert into the db, pull from the db and display the contents (long) to a TextView.

I think I am creating and inserting into the db correctly. In my getScore() method I am getting a NullPointerException.

Any help on code structure is much appreciated as well! Thank you in advance.

DatabaseHelper.java

public class DatabaseHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper { 

    SQLiteDatabase db;

    // Table columns names. 
    private static final String SCORE = "score"; 

    public DatabaseHelper(Context context) { 
        super(context, DB_NAME, null, DATABASE_VERSION); 
    }

    public SQLiteDatabase openDB() {
        db = this.getWritableDatabase();
        return db;
    }

    public long getScore(SQLiteDatabase db) {
        //Cursor c = db.rawQuery("SELECT " + SCORE + " FROM " + TABLE + " WHERE " + SCORE + " = " + 11 + ";", null);  //Line 45
        Cursor c = db.rawQuery("SELECT " + SCORE + " FROM " + TABLE + ";", null);  //Line 39
        long i = 0;
        if(c.getCount() == 0) {
            i = 333;
        } else if (c.getCount() == 1) {
            i = 444;
        } else {
            i = 888;
               /*c.moveToFirst();
               int columnIndex = c.getInt(c.getColumnIndex("SCORE"));
               if(columnIndex != -1) {
                   i = c.getLong(columnIndex);
               } else { 
                   i = 999; 
               }*/
        }
        c.close();
        return i;
    }

    //Insert new record.
    public long insert(long score, int percentage) {
        ContentValues values = new ContentValues();
        values.put(SCORE, score);
        values.put(PERCENTAGE, percentage);

        return db.insert(TABLE, null, values);
    }

    public synchronized void closeDB(SQLiteDatabase db) {
        if(db != null) {
            db.close();
        }
        super.close();
    }

    public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
        db.execSQL("CREATE TABLE " + TABLE + " ("
                + RANK + " INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,"
                + SCORE + " LONG,"
                + PERCENTAGE + " INTEGER"
                + ");");
    }
}

Highscores.java

public class Highscores extends Activity {

    DatabaseHelper dh;
    SQLiteDatabase db;
    long scores;

    TextView score;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.highscoresmain);

        dh = new DatabaseHelper(this);
        dh.openDB();
        long x = 11;
        int y = 22;

        TextView score = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.score);        
        TextView r1s = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.r1s);

        dh.insert(x, y);
        scores = dh.getScore(db);  //Line 56            
        score.setText("Score Column - TEST");
        r1s.setText("" + score);

        dh.closeDB(db);
    }
}

EDIT: New getScore() method.

public long getScore() {
    Cursor c = db.rawQuery("SELECT " + SCORE + " FROM " + TABLE + " WHERE " + SCORE + " = " + 11 + ";", null);
    //Cursor c = db.rawQuery("SELECT " + SCORE + " FROM " + TABLE + ";", null);
    long i = 0;
    if(c.getCount() == 0) {
        i = 333;
    } else if (c.getCount() == 1) {
        i = 444;
    } else if (c.getCount() == 2) {
        i = 555;
    } else {
        i = 666;
           /*c.moveToFirst();
           int columnIndex = c.getInt(c.getColumnIndex("SCORE"));
           if(columnIndex != -1) {
               i = c.getLong(columnIndex);
           } else { 
               i = 999; 
           }*/
    }
    c.close();
    return i;
}

This still returns i with a value of 666.

回答1:

You're overriding your local db value here: public long getScore(SQLiteDatabase db) { ... . Remove that parameter and it should work.

回答2:

The db you are passing to your database class in never initialized and is null. scores = dh.getScore(db); //Line 56 the db variable here is a member variable and you should initialize it before passing it to this method.

Check out the documentation, maybe this is your problem.
