I am trying to set alarm and notify user at the user's specified time. But I get NullPointerException at boundService.setAlarm(cal). I checked this link with a similar question but the solutions did not help me. Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks a lot in advance!
DateAndTimePickerActivity
public class DateAndTimePickerActivity extends FragmentActivity implements
OnClickListener {
public Calendar cal;
private ScheduleClient scheduleClient;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
scheduleClient = new ScheduleClient(this);
scheduleClient.doBindService();
}
@Override
private DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener mDateSetListener = new DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener() {
public void onDateSet(DatePicker view, int yearSelected,
int monthOfYear, int dayOfMonth,int ) {
year = yearSelected;
month = monthOfYear;
day = dayOfMonth;
}
};
private TimePickerDialog.OnTimeSetListener mTimeSetListener = new TimePickerDialog.OnTimeSetListener() {
// the callback received when the user "sets" the TimePickerDialog in
// the dialog
public void onTimeSet(TimePicker view, int hourOfDay, int min) {
hour = hourOfDay;
minute = min;
}
};
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
cal = Calendar.getInstance();
cal.set(year, month, day);
cal.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 0);
cal.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 0);
scheduleClient.setAlarmForNotification(cal); //NullPointerException
}
}
ScheduleClient
public class ScheduleClient {
private ScheduleService boundService;
private Context context;
private boolean isBound;
RemindMe remindme;
public ScheduleClient(Context context) {
super();
this.context = context;
}
public void doBindService() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
context.bindService(new Intent(context,ScheduleService.class), Connection, Context.BIND_AUTO_CREATE);
isBound=true;
}
private ServiceConnection Connection = new ServiceConnection() {
@Override
public void onServiceConnected(ComponentName name, IBinder service) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
boundService=((ScheduleService.ServiceBinder) service).getService();
}
@Override
public void onServiceDisconnected(ComponentName name) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
boundService=null;
}
};
public void doUnbindService() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
if (isBound) {
// Detach our existing connection.
context.unbindService(Connection);
isBound = false;
}
}
public void setAlarmForNotification(Calendar cal) {
