Java android application FATAL EXCEPTION on click on button

Question

I have an application where there is two textfields and and button. Here they are in xml:

<EditText
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:inputType="phone"
        android:ems="10"
        android:id="@+id/editText" android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" android:phoneNumber="true"
        android:hint="Номер телефона"/>
<EditText
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:inputType="textPassword"
        android:ems="10"
        android:id="@+id/editText2" android:password="true" android:hint="Пароль"/>
<Button
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="Войти"
        android:onClick="sendMessage"
        android:id="@+id/button" android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"/>

Here is also sendMessage and generateJSON functions:

public void sendMessage(View view)
{
    Intent intent = new Intent(TestActivity.this, RegActivity.class);
    startActivity(intent);
    String userDataJSON=this.generateJson(this.login.getText().toString(),this.password.getText().toString()) ;
    System.out.println(userDataJSON);
}

private String generateJson(String login, String password){
    JSONObject j = new JSONObject();
    j.put("login",login);
    j.put("password",password);
    String res=j.toString();
    return res;
}

If I just output this.login.getText().toString() and this.password.getText().toString() it outputs fine. But if I try to output userDataJSON on click, there is a mistake like this:

What's the problem? Also in app there is such mistake: So what's wrong in my app? Everything seems to be right.

Answer 1

Have you made all of the proper imports? You are getting a ClassNotFoundException whilst trying to call net.sf.json.JSONObject.

According to the json-lib homepage you must have, at minimum, the following dependencies in your class path:

• jakarta commons-lang 2.5
• jakarta commons-beanutils 1.8.0
• jakarta commons-collections 3.2.1
• jakarta commons-logging 1.1.1
• ezmorph 1.0.6
