In the Main activity I have a button to add a new Note (it's a sort of sticky notes android application):
ArrayAdapter<Note> adapter = (ArrayAdapter<Note>) getListAdapter();
Note note = null;
switch (view.getId()) {
case R.id.add:
// Call AddActivity to specify content of the note fields to be
// added to the DB
intentToAdd = new Intent(this, AddActivity.class);
startActivity(intentToAdd);
//get the extras from AddActivity
Note newNote = getIntent().getExtras().getParcelable("myNewNote");
String summary = newNote.getSummary();
String details = newNote.getDetails();
// Save the new note in the database
note = datasource.createNote(summary, details);
adapter.add(note);
break;
Then I have the AddActivity (which contains a form to add a new Note), its onCreate method is:
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_add);
butAdd = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonAjout);
intentToMain = new Intent(this, MainActivity.class);
butAdd.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
EditText summary = ((EditText) findViewById(R.id.editTextSum));
EditText details = ((EditText) findViewById(R.id.editTextDet));
Note note =new Note(summary.toString(),details.toString());
intentToMain.putExtra("myNewNote", note);
startActivity(intentToMain);
}
});
}
N.B : My Note Class implements Parcelable Class !
Here's my problem: when I click on the add button in the main activity my application crashes ("stops unexpectedly") WHY :( ???
Tell me if there is some other missing information or code... Thank you ...
The logCat says it's a nullPointerException:

I think it's because of these lines in the Main Activity:
String summary = newNote.getSummary();
String details = newNote.getDetails();
where I try to get values from newNote while it's null But why is it null?
-----------------------------------------------------------Edit-----------------------------------------------------------
I've tried the onActivityResult solution, but i still have a NullPointerException for this line:
Note newNote = getIntent().getExtras().getParcelable("myNewNote");
Here is the code: In Main Activity:
public void onClick(View view) {
adapter = (ArrayAdapter<Note>) getListAdapter();
switch (view.getId()) {
case R.id.add:
// Call AddActivity to specify content of the note fields to be
// added to the DB
intentToAdd = new Intent(this, AddActivity.class);
startActivityForResult(intentToAdd, 0);
break;
then:
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Log.i("aaaaa", "Dans le onActivityResult ");
if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
Log.i("aaaaa", "RESULT_OK ");
// get the extras from AddActivity
Note newNote = getIntent().getExtras().getParcelable("myNewNote");
if (newNote != null) {
String summary = newNote.getSummary();
String details = newNote.getDetails();
// Save the new note in the database
note = datasource.createNote(summary, details);
adapter.add(note);
} else {
Log.i("aaaaa", "newNote est null !!!!!!!! ");
}
} else {
Log.i("aaaaa", "RESULT_PAS OK ");
}
}
and in the AddActivity:
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_add);
Log.i("aaaaa", "Dans le onCreate de AddActivity");
butAdd = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonAjout);
intentToMain = new Intent(this, MainActivity.class);
butAdd.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Log.i("aaaaa", "Dans le onClick du bouton ajout");
EditText summary = ((EditText) findViewById(R.id.editTextSum));
EditText details = ((EditText) findViewById(R.id.editTextDet));
Note note =new Note(summary.toString(),details.toString());
intentToMain.putExtra("myNewNote", note);
setResult(RESULT_OK);
finish();
}
});
