Error when call method from another class in andro

i have 2 class. One is MainBaby.java and it contains:

public class MainBaby extends SurfaceView implements SurfaceHolder.Callback {

public MainBaby(Context context){
    super(context);
    init();
}

public MainBaby(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
      super(context, attrs);
      // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
      init();
}

public MainBaby(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
      super(context, attrs, defStyle);
      // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
      init();
}

public void init(){
    // adding the callback (this) to the surface holder to intercept events

    getHolder().addCallback(this);

    // create the game loop thread
    thread = new ThreadBaby(getHolder(), this);

    mPath = new Path();
    mBitmapPaint = new Paint(Paint.DITHER_FLAG);
    p = new Paint();
    p.setAntiAlias(true);
    p.setDither(true);
    p.setColor(Color.BLACK);
    p.setStyle(Paint.Style.STROKE);
    p.setStrokeJoin(Paint.Join.ROUND);
    p.setStrokeCap(Paint.Cap.ROUND);
    p.setStrokeWidth(50);

    setFocusable(true);

}

public void callMe(){

    Log.v("tag", "the button successfully pressed");
}   
}

this class in inflated in main.xml

<AbsoluteLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
  <coba.gesture.Main
    android:id="@+id/LayoDalam"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent" />
</AbsoluteLayout>

and i want to call method callMe() at cobaGesture.java like this:

public class CobaGesture extends Activity { MainBaby mb;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);  
    ImageButton resetBut = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.reset);
    resetBut.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            mb.callMe();
        }
    });      
}

but when i click the button, the application was force closed and here's the logcat:

what does it means? and how to solve it?

thank you in advance.

UPDATE! here's the edited code and the error:

回答1:

You should initial object with the correct context (in this case, it is your activity). So it is:

  mb = new MainBaby(CobaGesture.this);
OR:
  mb = new MainBaby(getApplicationContext());

Put this code into onClick event or onCreate, so you can use mb.callMe();

All about the context is here and from Android document

回答2:

mb.callMe();

Is not institiated thats the reason of the error. In other words, you are using a variable that points to nothing or Null. If you want to use other classes in your code your should declare it first.

public void onClick(View v) {
 MainBaby mb = new MainBaby(); //This initiates the variable correctly.
 mb.callMe();
}

回答3:

Initialize the object mb as mb=new MainBaby(CobaGesture.this); inside the oncreate method

回答4:

callme() is a method of android which is called when in view when we pressed any button . just put this below method in activity which contain atleast one button and run your project .

 public void callMe(View view){

            Log.e("tag", "the button successfully pressed");
        }
