下面我发布了代码并指出了错误行.

Add_Update_User.java：

@Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.add_update_screen);

    // set screen
    Set_Add_Update_Screen();

    // set visibility of view as per calling activity
    String called_from = getIntent().getStringExtra("called");

    if (called_from.equalsIgnoreCase("add")) {  --->38th error line
        add_view.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        update_view.setVisibility(View.GONE);
    } else {

        update_view.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        add_view.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        USER_ID = Integer.parseInt(getIntent().getStringExtra("USER_ID"));

        Contact c = dbHandler.Get_Contact(USER_ID);  

        add_name.setText(c.getName());
        add_mobile.setText(c.getPhoneNumber());
        add_email.setText(c.getEmail());
        // dbHandler.close();
    }
    }

解决方法:

called_from必须为null.添加针对该条件的测试,如

if (called_from != null && called_from.equalsIgnoreCase("add")) {

或者您可以使用Yoda conditions(根据链接的*文章中的优点,它也可以解决某些类型的不安全的空行为,它们可以被描述为将表达式的常量部分放在条件语句的左侧)

if ("add".equalsIgnoreCase(called_from)) { // <-- safe if called_from is null
