Android: java.lang.nullPointerException at custom ListView adapter - android-listview

Question

I'm trying to make a custom view for my ListView, but the app crash when try to open it. I read a lot of pages but don't find the solution. Please help me!
This is my custom Adapter:
public class AdaptadorCatalogo extends BaseAdapter {
protected Activity activity;
protected ArrayList<LineaCatalogo> items;
public AdaptadorCatalogo(Activity activity, ArrayList<LineaCatalogo> items) {
this.activity = activity;
this.items = items;
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
return items.size();
}
#Override
public Object getItem(int position) {
return items.get(position);
}
#Override
public long getItemId(int position){
return 0;
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View contentView, ViewGroup parent) {
View vi=contentView;
if(contentView == null) {
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) activity.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
vi = inflater.inflate(R.layout.listitem_catalogo, null);
}
LineaCatalogo item = items.get(position);
TextView primeraLinea = (TextView) vi.findViewById(R.id.lblPrimeraLinea);
primeraLinea.setText(item.getPrimeraLinea());
TextView segundaLinea = (TextView) vi.findViewById(R.id.lblSegundaLinea);
segundaLinea.setText(item.getSegundaLinea());
TextView magnitud = (TextView) vi.findViewById(R.id.lblMagnitud);
magnitud.setText(item.getMagnitud());
return vi;
}
}
This is my xml:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".listaSismos" >
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/general"
style="#style/AppCentral"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:paddingLeft="50dp" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/titulo_catalogo"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="30sp"
android:text="#string/esperando_info" />
<ListView
android:id="#+id/listaDatos"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginBottom="50dp"
android:layout_marginTop="50dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="30dp" />
</RelativeLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
This is my Activity:
public class listaSismos extends Activity {
private TextView tituloCatalogo;
private ListView listaDatos;
private String opcion;
private String codigoUsuario;
private String latitud;
private String longitud;
private String idioma;
private int difHoraria;
private ArrayList<LineaCatalogo> Catalogo;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.lista_sismos);
tituloCatalogo = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.titulo_catalogo);
listaDatos = (ListView)findViewById(R.id.listaDatos);
Bundle bundle = getIntent().getExtras();
opcion = bundle.getString("lista");
codigoUsuario = bundle.getString("codigoUsuario");
latitud = bundle.getString("latitud");
longitud = bundle.getString("longitud");
idioma = getResources().getConfiguration().locale.toString();
TimeZone defaultTZ = TimeZone.getDefault();
difHoraria = defaultTZ.getRawOffset() / 1000;
ListarCatalogo conexion = new ListarCatalogo();
conexion.execute();
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
return true;
}
private class ListarCatalogo extends AsyncTask<String,Integer,Boolean> {
private int contador;
protected Boolean doInBackground(String... params) {
boolean resul = true;
HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpGet del =
new HttpGet(my_app_server_url);
del.setHeader("content-type", "application/json");
try
{
HttpResponse resp = httpClient.execute(del);
String respStr = EntityUtils.toString(resp.getEntity());
JSONArray respJSON = new JSONArray(respStr);
ArrayList<LineaCatalogo> Catalogo = new ArrayList<LineaCatalogo>();
contador = respJSON.length();
for(int cont=0; cont<contador; cont++)
{
JSONObject obj = respJSON.getJSONObject(cont);
String tituloS = obj.getString("P");
String subtituloS = obj.getString("S");
String magnitudS = obj.getString("M");
Catalogo.add(new LineaCatalogo(tituloS, subtituloS, magnitudS));
}
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
resul = false;
}
return resul;
}
protected void onPostExecute(Boolean result) {
tituloCatalogo.setText(R.string.titulo_catalogo);
if (result)
{
//Rellenamos la lista con los resultados
AdaptadorCatalogo adaptador = new AdaptadorCatalogo(listaSismos.this, Catalogo);
listaDatos.setAdapter(adaptador);
tituloCatalogo.setText("OK");
} else {
tituloCatalogo.setText(R.string.no_datos);
}
}
}
}
If i comment the line "listaDatos.setAdapter(adaptador);", the app runs ok. If not, i get this LogCat:

I still working a week looking for the solution, but i can't do it. Please, help me. And sorry by my poor english, i'm spanish from Canary Islands.

Answer 1

Declare and initialize like
private ArrayList<LineaCatalogo> Catalogo= new ArrayList<LineaCatalogo>();
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
Remove
ArrayList<LineaCatalogo> Catalogo = new ArrayList<LineaCatalogo>();
// becomes local to doInbackground as it is declared and initialized there.
in doInbackground.
In your case Catalogo was null.

Answer 2

You redefine your list with
ArrayList<LineaCatalogo> Catalogo = new ArrayList<LineaCatalogo>();
in the doInBacground
use just
Catalogo = new ArrayList<LineaCatalogo>();
