    <p>I'm developing an android app which parses an XML file from the server using SAX and displays in the form of list. I'm getting null pointer exception. But when i excecuted the same code as java application removing all the android stuffs i'm able to print the list which wanted to display in the list. It's document of about 700 items. I couldn't understand much from the logs i got using Logcat. I'm new to android development. It would really helpful if you can help me with this.</p> <pre><code>06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): FATAL EXCEPTION: main 06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{rss.com/rss.com.RSSReader}: java.lang.NullPointerException 06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:1622) 06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): at android.app.ActivityThread.handleLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:1638) 06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): at android.app.ActivityThread.access$1500(ActivityThread.java:117) 06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): at android.app.ActivityThread$H.handleMessage(ActivityThread.java:928) 06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:99) 06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:123) 06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:3647) 06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) 06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:507) 06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:839) 06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:597) 06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) 06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException 06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): at rss.com.RSSReader.onCreate(RSSReader.java:33) 06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): at android.app.Instrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(Instrumentation.java:1047) 06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:1586) 06-08 13:27:04.032: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(403): ... 11 more </code></pre> <p>My Manifest file is </p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt;

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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
