NullPointerException in FileObserver - Android

Question

我现在正在编写FileObserver代码。我有下面的代码，如果我运行它，我将得到NullPointerException。

public class FileModificationService extends Service{
    private MyFileObserver fileOb;
    private static final int MAX_FO = 1;
    private List<MyFileObserver> fileOb_list = new ArrayList<MyFileObserver>();
    @Override
    public void onCreate() {
        if (!EnvironmentUtilsStatic.is_external_storage_available()) {
            Toast.makeText(FileModificationService.this, "SDCARD is not available!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            return;
        }
        File sdcard = new File("/storage/sdcard/DCIM/Camera/SAMPLE IMAGES/");
        if (sdcard == null) {
            return;
        } else {
            fileOb_list.clear();
            num_of_fos = 0;
            createFileObs(sdcard);
        }
    }

    //only create fileobserver for folders
    int num_of_fos = 0;
    private void createFileObs(File f) {
        if (num_of_fos > MAX_FO) {
            return;
        }
        if (!f.isDirectory()) {
            MyFileObserver aFileOb = new MyFileObserver(f.getAbsolutePath());
            fileOb_list.add(aFileOb);
        } else {
            fileOb = new MyFileObserver(f.getAbsolutePath());
            MyFileObserver aFileOb = new MyFileObserver(f.getAbsolutePath());
            fileOb_list.add(aFileOb);
            num_of_fos++;
            try {
                for (File currentFile : f.listFiles()) {
                    createFileObs(currentFile);
                }
            } catch (Exception e) {
                Log.e("Error", e.toString());
            }
        }
    }

    @Override
    public void onStart(Intent intent, int startid) {
        fileOb.startWatching();
fileOb = new MyFileObserver("/storage/sdcard/DCIM/Camera/SAMPLE IMAGES/");// added code
        for (int i = 0; i < fileOb_list.size(); ++i) { //This is line no. 60
            fileOb_list.get(i).startWatching();
        }
        Toast.makeText(this.getApplicationContext(), "start monitoring file modification", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }
    @Override
    public void onDestroy() {
        fileOb.stopWatching();
        for (int i = 0; i < fileOb_list.size(); ++i) {
            fileOb_list.get(i).stopWatching();
        }
        Toast.makeText(this.getApplicationContext(), "stop monitoring file modification", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }

    @Override
    public IBinder onBind(Intent arg0) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return null;
    }
}

我收到了下面的日志-

实际上，这段代码以前是起作用的。我没有对代码做任何修改。但是，当我尝试运行这段代码时，当我将模拟器从谷歌更改为英特尔x86后，问题就开始了。但是，我试图将仿真器转换回Google。但同时，代码也不起作用。

我不明白，为什么这段代码不能工作。

请带一些建议，如果可能的话，用教程指导我。提前谢谢。

Answer 1

在fileOb.startWatching()中使用onStart()之前，您需要初始化它

Answer 2

我将FileObserver变量初始化为-

fileOb = new MyFileObserver(String path_to_my_folder);

请在问题中找到更新的代码。这个解决方案对我有效。
