    <p>I have following problem. I have this implementation of my Thread with Looper.</p> <pre><code>public class GeoLocationThread extends Thread{ public Handler handler; private General general; public void run(){ Looper.prepare(); handler = new IncomingHandler(general); Looper.loop(); } public GeoLocationThread(General general){ this.general=general; } private static class IncomingHandler extends Handler{ private final WeakReference&lt;General&gt; mService; IncomingHandler(General service) { mService = new WeakReference&lt;General&gt;(service); } @Override public void handleMessage(Message msg) { General service = mService.get(); if (service != null) { Location location=service.getLl().getLocation(); if(location.getAccuracy()&lt;40){ service.setOrigin(new GeoPoint((int) (location.getLatitude() * 1E6),(int) (location.getLongitude() * 1E6))); } } } } </code></pre> <p>}</p> <p>and i would like to do the following:</p> <pre><code>GeoLocationThread locationThread=new GeoLocationThread(this); locationThread.start(); lm.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER, 0, 0, ll, locationThread.handler.getLooper()); </code></pre> <p>Where lm is LocationManager. From my log and testing I am able to say that <code>locationThread.handler.getLooper()</code> returns null instead of the Looper. </p> <p>I don't know why it is null. I have tried to call <code>locationThread.isAlive()</code> which has returned true. I have also tried to get <code>locationThread.handler;</code> which I know is not null. I have also done the lot of googling, but I haven't found more than the documentaion.</p> <p>Thank you very much in advance for your answers.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
