NullPointerException while using Parse

When i call Parse method getList("some column") i always get NullPointerException. What should i do to avoid it? Here is some code

ParseObject someObj = new ParseObject("Some table");
someObj.put("some column", "some text");
someObj.saveInBackground();

List<String> someList = someObj.getList("some column");
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), someList.get(0), Toast.LENGHT_LONG).show()

I think that you're not getting a NPE in List<String> someList = someObj.getList("some column"); I think that getList is returning null and you're getting the NPE when you try to get the first element on this list in the follow line: someList.get(0).

In ParseObject api for android:

getList returns null if there is no such key or if the value can't be converted to a List

So since you're setting a string some text value for some column key in someObj.put("some column", "some text"), you can't get this value as List using getList("some column"), so simply use get("some column") instead.
