but whe i print position it gives values.
so how it gives null pointer?

[Ulf Dittmer]

Which object is null?

[shawn peter]

I also need to know ?

[Ulf Dittmer]

We are not in a position to figure that out - you are. For example, you can print relevant values to the Log.

Also, in which line does the exception occur, meaning, which one is line 52 - the one labelled 52 in your post?

[shawn peter]

It gives null pointer in this line

Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA "+position, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

but the position value is not null.

[Ulf Dittmer]

What does getApplicationContext() return?

What does Toast.makeText(...) return?
