NulPointerException at maps.y.p.onResume(Unknown Source) on implementing fragments for OSMDroid

Question

I am currently trying to transfer my OSMDroid Map Activity into Fragments. It seems that everything has been set correctly but I'm getting this weird NullPointerException which I'm unsure of solving.

Here are my part of my codes for the fragment class:

public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflator, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {

    final View view = inflator.inflate(R.layout.offline_map_activity, container, false);


    myOpenMapView = (MapView) view.findViewById(R.id.openmapview);

    mResourceProxy = new DefaultResourceProxyImpl(getSherlockActivity().getApplicationContext());
    myOpenMapView.getTileProvider().clearTileCache();

    File aFile = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString() + 
            "/test/offlineMap/" + tID + ".zip");
    IArchiveFile[] myArchives = new IArchiveFile[1];
    myArchives[0] = ArchiveFileFactory.getArchiveFile(aFile);
    MyTileSource myTiles = new MyTileSource( "" + tID, null, 12, 12, 256, ".png");
    MapTileModuleProviderBase[] myProviders = new MapTileModuleProviderBase[2];
    myProviders[0] = new MapTileFileArchiveProvider(new SimpleRegisterReceiver(getSherlockActivity().getApplicationContext()), 
            myTiles, myArchives);
    myProviders[1] =  new MapTileDownloader(TileSourceFactory.MAPNIK);
    MapTileProviderArray MyTileProvider = new MapTileProviderArray(myTiles,null, myProviders);
    TilesOverlay MyTilesOverlay = new TilesOverlay(MyTileProvider, getSherlockActivity().getApplicationContext());
    //codes continue...


    return view;
}

Do let me know if more of the codes need to be shown. Thanks!

What I do is create the Osmdroid mapview in code and not xml. You could try to do that instead and then add the view to a container where you want the Osmdroid mapview to reside. This way you'd also be able to test everything more easily.

An example:

    setContentView(R.layout.main);
    RelativeLayout mapContainer = (RelativeLayout)
    findViewById(R.id.osm_map_container);

    final Harbor harbor = getHarbor();

    mMapView = new MapView(this, 256);  // you can supply other parameters here as well.
    LayoutParams params = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);
    mMapView.setLayoutParams(params);
    mapContainer.addView(mMapView);

I think you may just be missing this, it fixed it in mine that had a similar issue to this.

super.onCreateView(inflater, container, savedInstanceState);
