Strange NullPointer Exception

I'm trying to pass a string value from my listview adapter to my fragment using the following code but I get a null pointer exception. Breaking it down told me that the error is in calling the method, but I don't see anything wrong

public void onClick(View v) 
{
       String text =  myList.get(position);
       resetArrbg();
       arrBgcolor[position] = true;
       DevFragment def = new DevFragment();
       def.clicked(text);
 }

The error is definitely in the last two lines, because if I replace them with a Toast using the text variable, it works The corresponding method in the fragment is

public void clicked(String arg1)
{    
      globalString == arg1;
}

globalString == arg1;

In above lines you are comparing String objects instead of assigning it. I think you should replace this by-

globalString = arg1;

 globalString == arg1;

you want to assing the String not compare its address

 globalString = arg1;
