AW: WG: Question: Can not get access to object fields (Null Pointer Exception) pls pls help!

2006-09-12 Thread m-woelm
hey, lot of thanks,

the state field was really null because the parameters were passed to the
constructor but I never saved the value...

By the reason I am a novice in tapestry, I had searched it everywhere but
not in that simple way...

Greetings,

Michael Wölm

As a general rule, it's safer to put the literal first in statements 
like this:

"admin".equals(user.getState())

If anyone wants to say that it looks/reads a bit funny, I'll agree.  
It's an odd syntax, but it protects you from NPEs.

And, since "user" is definitely not null, your private String "state" is 
obviously null.

Perhaps you should add something like this:
  

private String state = "initial state";

Betreff: Question: Can not get access to object fields (Null Pointer
Exception)

Hi,

I hope anybody could explain me why I get a Null Pointer Exception, if I
want to get access to a field of an object. My method is similar to the
eshop-project of the book “Enjoying web dev with Tapestry”.

I tried to change the Listener-method onLogin as follows:

public void onLogin(IRequestCycle cycle) {

try {

  User user = Users.getKnownUsers().getUser(email,password);

  getUser().copyFrom(user);

  if (user.getState().equals("admin"))
cycle.activate("Admin_Konsole");

  else cycle.activate("User_Konsole");

} catch (AuthenticationException e) {

  ValidationDelegate delegate = getDelegate();

  delegate.setFormComponent(null);

  delegate.record("Login failed", null);

}

  }


Now I get an exception at point (user.getState().equals(“admin”)).

But why? user was set to the login-user two lines before? Why I can’t get
the field: private String state which I have set in User.class:


  private String state;

  public String getState() {

return this.state;

  }


Thx ahead!

Michael Wölm
