NumberFormatException invalid int ""

3.2k views Asked by At

I am trying to take the input values from EditText and I want to save it to sqlite Database. I dont know how to use the logcat [also please explain how can I read the errors from the LogCat].

MainActivity.java:

package com.example.database;

import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;
import android.text.Editable;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase.CursorFactory;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteOpenHelper;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.Toast;


public class MainActivity extends Activity{

    EditText first,last,age,classc;
    Button add,view;

    String FirstName;
    String LastName,Class;
    Integer Age;

    sqLit myDB;
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        myDB = new sqLit(this);
        Link();
        xmlToVar();
        add.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                Integer flag=myDB.insertValue(FirstName, LastName, Class, Age);
                if (flag==1)
                {
                    Context context=getApplicationContext();
                    Toast toast = Toast.makeText(context, "Record Added" , Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
                    toast.show();
                }
                else
                {
                    Context context=getApplicationContext();
                    Toast toast = Toast.makeText(context, "Error Occured" , Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
                    toast.show();
                }
            }
        });
    }

    public void Link()
    {
        first=(EditText) findViewById(R.id.editFirst);
        last=(EditText) findViewById(R.id.editLast);
        classc=(EditText) findViewById(R.id.editClass);
        age=(EditText) findViewById(R.id.editAge);
        add=(Button) findViewById(R.id.Add);
        view=(Button) findViewById(R.id.ViewAll);
    }

    public void xmlToVar()
    {
        FirstName = first.getText().toString();
        LastName = last.getText().toString();
        Class = classc.getText().toString();
        Age = Integer.parseInt(age.getText().toString());
    }


}

sqLit.java:

package com.example.database;

import org.w3c.dom.Text;

import android.content.ContentValues;
import android.content.Context;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabase;
import android.database.sqlite.SQLiteOpenHelper;

public class sqLit extends SQLiteOpenHelper
{

    public static final String DB_NAME="student12.db";
    public static final String TABLE_NAME="class1";

    public static final String COL_1="ROLL NO";
    public static final String COL_2="First Name";
    public static final String COL_3="Last Name";
    public static final String COL_4="Class";
    public static final String COL_5="Age";




    public sqLit(Context context) {
        super(context, DB_NAME, null, 1);
        // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
    }

    @Override
    public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        db.execSQL("Create table " + TABLE_NAME + "(" + COL_1 + "INTEGER AUTOINCREMENT PRIMARY KEY," + COL_2 + "TEXT," + COL_3 + "TEXT," + COL_4 + "TEXT," + COL_5 + "INTEGER)");
    }

    @Override

        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        db.execSQL("Drop Table If Exist" + TABLE_NAME );
        onCreate(db);
    }

    public Integer insertValue(String FirstName, String LastName, String Class, Integer Age)
    {

        SQLiteDatabase db = this.getWritableDatabase();
        ContentValues contentV = new ContentValues();
        contentV.put(COL_2, FirstName);
        contentV.put(COL_3, LastName);
        contentV.put(COL_4, Class);
        contentV.put(COL_5, Age);
        long isInserted = db.insert(TABLE_NAME, null, contentV);
        if (isInserted == -1){
            return 0;
        }
        else
        {
            return 1;
        }
        }




}

Also, please explain how to use LogCat as I don't understand how to read it.

Caused by: java.lang.NumberFormatException: Invalid int: ""

(after FATAL EXCEPTION:) tells us you are trying to parse an int but the value you are trying to parse is an empty String.

this line (the first that references your class) tells us which line it was

 at com.example.database.MainActivity.xmlToVar(MainActivity.java:72)

this is happening because you are calling it in onCreate() before the EditText has any value entered.

From the line above, we can see that the error happens in MainActivity in the method xmlToVar at line 72 which should be

Age = Integer.parseInt(age.getText().toString());

To solve this, you should call that method in an onClick or some event listener. You also should surround it in a try/catch or use some other validation checking.

You should read the following questions and their answers for more details:

What is a stack trace, and how can I use it to debug my application errors?

Unfortunately MyApp has stopped. How can I solve this?

java.lang.NumberFormatException: Invalid int: "" in android

basically, read the error it gives you then look for the first line which mentions your class. Sometimes you need to read deeper but for basic errors that is usually enough.

Also Please Explain how to use LogCat as I am 3 days Old Android Programmer. I never used Eclipse.

Note that the stacktrace isn't Eclipse or even Java/Android specific. You can get some sort of crash log like this in other languages/IDEs/Consoles

The problem is here:

Age = Integer.parseInt(age.getText().toString());

age.getText().toString() equals "" and which causes the NumberFormatException
