NullPointerException When Loading Objects Into A ListView

Question

I'm attempting to do some mock-ups of a UI of an application that I'm building. I'm using a Navigation drawer as the root layout and I'm using nested fragments for one of my menu items in order to use a ViewPager with tab indicators. That part works fine when I just populate each of the fragments with just some basic text, but when I replaced the basic text in one of the children fragments (one of the tab views) with a ListView; I am getting a java.lang.NullPointerException in my fragment class.

public class FragmentVenues extends ListFragment {

private static final String ARGUMENT_KEY_PROPERTIES = "venue";


public static FragmentVenues newInstance(ArrayList<Venue> venues) {
    final Bundle args = new Bundle();
    args.putParcelableArrayList(ARGUMENT_KEY_PROPERTIES, venues);

    final FragmentVenues f = new FragmentVenues();
    f.setArguments(args);
    return f;
}

@Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
    final List<Venue> venues =      getArguments().getParcelableArrayList(ARGUMENT_KEY_PROPERTIES);//error here
    setListAdapter(new VenueListAdapter(getActivity(), venues));
}

This is the ListAdapter that accesses a class that fills creates the objects to load into the ListView.

public class VenueListAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<Venue>{
private final LayoutInflater mInflater;

public VenueListAdapter(Context context, List<Venue> objects) {
    super(context, -1, objects);
    mInflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);

}

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
    final Venue venue = getItem(position);

    if (convertView == null) {
        convertView = mInflater.inflate(R.layout.fragmentvenues, parent, false);
    }

    // This will be made more efficient later
    TextView tv = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.city);
    tv.setText(venue.getCity() + ", " + venue.getState());
    tv = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.venuename);
    tv.setText(venue.getVenueName());
    tv = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.street);
    tv.setText(venue.getStreetAddress());
    tv = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.number);
    tv.setText(venue.getPhoneNumber());

    return convertView;

}
}

I'm trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong and/or if there's something I'm missing? This same code worked when I was using Action Bar Tabs but I abandoned them when I realized they're not meant to work with the Navigation Drawer. Below is the stack trace:

Answer 1

Implement Parcelable on both Venue Class and Fragment.

public class Venue implements Parcelable{

@Override
public int describeContents() {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    return 0;
}

@Override
public void writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

}

}
