为什么在应用程序的构造函数中调用 android.content.Context.getApplicationContext() 时会出现 NPE？

Question

我的申请 class 看起来与此类似，

public class MyApplication extends Application {

    private static final String TAG = MyApplication.class.getSimpleName();
    public static Context mContext;

    public MyApplication() {
        Log.i(TAG, "Inside my application.. " + this);
        Log.i(TAG, "Value of application context is  : " + this.getApplicationContext());
        mContext = this;
    }
}

当我执行上述操作时出现 NPE 并且我的应用程序崩溃，

而在普通 java 代码中 class 看起来像这样，

public class Student {
    int age;
    String name;
    String badgeid;

    public Student(int age, String name) {
        this.age = age;
        this.name = name;
        this.badgeid = this.age + this.name;
    }
}

当我做 this.age 和 this.name 时不会导致 NPE。上面的应用程序片段与下面的有什么不同？

Answer 1

你能在 onCreate() 方法中执行此操作吗，它应该可以工作，因为你在构造函数中执行此操作可能是问题所在。

Answer 2

How do the above application snippet is something different than the below?

Student 没有超类（默认的 Object 除外）。您正在引用自己在 Student.

上定义的字段

Application 有超类，如您在 the documentation 中所见。那么，让我们为您的 Student:

添加一个超类

public class Base {
  String something;

  public void onCreate() {
    something = "a value";
  }
}

public class Student extends Base {
    int age;
    String name;
    String badgeid;
    int value;

    public Student(int age, String name) {
        this.age = age;
        this.name = name;
        this.badgeid = this.age + this.name;
        this.value = something.length;
    }
}

在这里，您会因 NullPointerException 而崩溃，因为在您尝试调用 something.length 时 something 是 null。在调用 onCreate() 之前，超类不会将 something 设置为一个值。您引用 something 太早了。

同样，在适当的时间之前，您不能调用 Context 公开的方法。对于 Application、Activity 和 Service，这是在您的 onCreate() 调用 super.onCreate().

之后

为什么在应用程序的构造函数中调用 android.content.Context.getApplicationContext() 时会出现 NPE？

Why do I get NPE when I invoke android.content.Context.getApplicationContext() within Application's constructor?

java

android

android-context

applicationcontext
