    <p>Hey, so I have been making an application which sends weekly notifications at user-specified times.</p> <p>I have followed plenty of tutorials and seem to have read the same thing over and over, I just cant seem to get it to work. My application crashes when I call the new intent. Am I doing something wrong? is this the correct method of accomplishing this task? </p> <pre><code>public class AlarmService extends Activity { /// unimportant working code not added Intent mintent = new Intent(context, mBroadcastReceiver.class); Log.d(TAG, "Got Intent"); /// I receive a log just before this portion but do not receive this one startActivity(PAintent); Log.d(TAG, "StartActivity(intent)"); PendingIntent mPendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(getApplicationContext(), ALARMID, mintent, PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT); Log.d(TAG, "Got Pending intent"); AlarmManager mAlarm = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(ALARM_SERVICE); Log.d(TAG, "Got alarmmanager"); ///// remember to change time back to: (7 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000) mAlarm.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, ALARM_TIME.getTimeInMillis(), (30 * 1000), mPendingIntent); Log.d(TAG, "Made Pending intent"); ... } </code></pre> <p>keep in mind I renamed my intent, pendingintent, and alarm manager in this code for easier reading!</p> <p>I keep receiving a null pointer exception, my debug looks like this:</p> <pre><code>03-05 13:20:45.132: E/AndroidRuntime(12734): FATAL EXCEPTION: main 03-05 13:20:45.132: E/AndroidRuntime(12734): java.lang.NullPointerException 03-05 13:20:45.132: E/AndroidRuntime(12734): at android.content.ComponentName.&lt;init&gt;(ComponentName.java:75) 03-05 13:20:45.132: E/AndroidRuntime(12734): at android.content.Intent.&lt;init&gt;(Intent.java:2720) 03-05 13:20:45.132: E/AndroidRuntime(12734): at com.theStudyBuddy.Ignite.AlarmService.PlannerAssistantOn(AlarmService.java:148) 03-05 13:20:45.132: E/AndroidRuntime(12734): at com.theStudyBuddy.Ignite.EditScheduleActivity.saveClass(EditScheduleActivity.java:635) 03-05 13:20:45.132: E/AndroidRuntime(12734): at com.theStudyBuddy.Ignite.EditScheduleActivity.onClick(EditScheduleActivity.java:583) 03-05 13:20:45.132: E/AndroidRuntime(12734): at android.view.View.performClick(View.java:2485) </code></pre> <p>... and so on</p> <p>if anyone could point out my error it would be greatly appreciated!</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.
