Question

I\'m creating an app that display contact list in a listview.The problem is I\'m getting the following error when I run my app and I\'m struggling to fix it:

Answer 1

The List object which you passed into the adapter is null. So when the adapter calls list.Size(), a null pointer exception is thrown.

Use a debugger, set a breakpoint somewhere around com.kksworld.jsonparsing.MainActivity$JSONTask.onPostExecute(MainActivity.java:48), and work your way backward from there if you can't figure it out.

One assumes that your json parse failed somehow or another.
