I've an activity WelcomeActivity.java in which theres a button bContinue. In the OnClick method of the button, I tried this..
startActivity(new Intent(this, MenuItemDetailActivity.class));
//startActivity(new Intent("com.resto.demo.activity.MENUITEMLISTACTIVITY"));
neither of the above 2 lines work. instead they give me NullPointerException & the program ends abruptly..I cant find the problem.. is the problem in manifest or my call?
<activity
android:name="com.resto.demo.activity.MenuItemListActivity"
android:label="@string/title_menuitem_list" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.resto.demo.activity.MENUITEMLISTACTIVITY" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
MenuItemListActivity is the part of master/detail flow.
Thanx you. Also tell me if my problem is not understood. Any help/suggestion is welcome :)
Edit your manifest
<application
<activity
android:name="com.resto.demo.activity.MenuItemListActivity"
android:label="@string/title_menuitem_list" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.resto.demo.activity.MENUITEMLISTACTIVITY" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:name="com.resto.demo.activity.MenuItemDetailActivity"/>
</application>
And add this to OnClick event
startActivity(new Intent(MenuItemListActivity.this, MenuItemDetailActivity.class));
The first thing I would do is make sure MenuItemDetailActivity is in the AndroidManifest as well (instead of just MenuItemListActivity)
<activity
android:name="com.resto.demo.activity.MenuItemDetailActivity"
android:label="..." >
</activity>
However, this does not normally throw a NullPointerException. Can you post the error message/stack trace for the NullPointerException? Also, it would be great to post the lines of code that the NullPointerException references.
