My application got crashed because of not initializing the view

Question

Here, i am trying to call setText method but my application is getting crashed because of some initialization problem.

EditText edittext;
    SharedPreferences          


        

Answer 1

edittext is not initialized. Initialize it in onCreate.

In onCreate you have

edittext.setText(returnString); // not initialized in onCreate

You have

edittext =(EditText)findViewById(R.id.edit_message); // initialized in sendMessage

in sendMessage. So you may be setting text to edittext even before it is initialized
