I am getting NULL pointer exception currently, when I run this thread
public void run() {
long idle = 0;
this.touch();
do {
idle = System.currentTimeMillis() - lastUsed;
Log.d(TAG, "Application is idle for " + idle + " ms");
if ((idle > 5000) && (check == false)) { // Checking For 2 Minutes.
Log.e("AthanAd", "2 minutes over - Show Ad.");
adView = (AdView) view.findViewById(R.id.adView);
adView.loadAd(new AdRequest());
check = true;
}
try {
Thread.sleep(8000); // check every 5 seconds
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
Log.d(TAG, "Waiter interrupted!");
}
if (idle > period) {
idle = 0;
// do something here - e.g. call popup or so
}
} while (!stop);
Log.d(TAG, "Finishing Waiter thread");
}
I am getting the exception this line.
adView = (AdView) view.findViewById(R.id.adView);
At the top of the application I have declared View view; but I know I have not linked it to any view.
My question is: How I can get the view visible to screen?
Do not use view.findViewById(R.id.adView);
use findViewById(R.id.adView);
LinearLayout ln=(LinearLayout)findViewById(R.id.yourid);
ln.addView(adView);
