问题
I keep getting a java.lang.NullPointerException when I try to use ScrollView in an activity.
The weird thing is that I've used the exact same Scrollview setup in other activities. And all of a sudden I'm getting errors. I've tried cleaning the project and rebuilding.
And I've tried the good old restart the program. I learned a lot about Null Pointer Exceptions today, but I haven't been able to figure out why I keep getting Rendering Problems.
This is the java.lang.NullPointerException that is thrown on the XML:

So, none of this is code that I wrote. So I dove into the stack trace and found this:
java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'boolean java.lang.String.equals(java.lang.Object)' on a null object reference

Which points to line 11 on the Contact.java file. Which looks like this (I've put indicators around line 11) :
package com.mitchellpalermo.tutroubleshooting;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class Contact extends Activity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_contact); // line 11
}
}
I don't see a problem with line 11.
Now, I can't figure out what is wrong with my code. Between Rendering Problems and NullPointerExceptions, I can't figure out what is actually wrong with my code.
This is an example of XML in an activity in which the ScrollView doesn't throw any errors:
<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"

android:layout_gravity="center"
android:onClick="notFixedButton"

android:textStyle="bold" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
And here is the activity in which I receive errors:

android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:fillViewport="false">

<TextView

android:text="@string/mitch" />
</android.support.v7.widget.CardView>
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
Any suggestions? And thank you so much in advance!

Change <view to <View, because view is not about empty view. It's for custom view defined through class attr, like below:
<view
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
class="com.your.package.YourCustomView" />
And you got
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'boolean java.lang.String.equals(java.lang.Object)' on a null object reference
because of LayoutInflater tries to parse class attr:
LayoutInflater source code
//...
View createViewFromTag(View parent, String name, Context context, AttributeSet attrs,
boolean ignoreThemeAttr) {
if (name.equals("view")) { // line 724
name = attrs.getAttributeValue(null, "class"); // line 725
}
// Apply a theme wrapper, if allowed and one is specified.
if (!ignoreThemeAttr) {
final TypedArray ta = context.obtainStyledAttributes(attrs, ATTRS_THEME);
final int themeResId = ta.getResourceId(0, 0);
if (themeResId != 0) {
context = new ContextThemeWrapper(context, themeResId);
}
ta.recycle();
}
if (name.equals(TAG_1995)) { // line 738
// Let's party like it's 1995!
return new BlinkLayout(context, attrs);
}
//...
- On line 724 it check that your tag is
viewand getstrue - On line 725 it tries to get class through
classattr and getsnull - On line 738 it tries to check for
blinktag and gets crash
Also, there is a curious thing, Android developers added Easter egg, you can try it:
<view
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
class="blink">
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="Some text" />
</view>

After 2 days I solved this problem use View instead of view
<View
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="1dp"
android:background="#faf4f4"></View>
