Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.os.Bundle android.content.Intent.getExtras()' on a null object reference

Question

how do I resolve the error above.Am creating a simple Android App to that grants me access to my phone's camera.Everything works fine,however,when I go back to the main activity(in the App) the App crashes.The Logcat returns this error:Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'android.os.Bundle android.content.Intent.getExtras()' on a null object reference and honestly I have no idea what it means.I have tried researching the error but every solution I find is somewhat unrelated to what am doing,though the error is still the same.The problem is said to be on this line Bitmap bitmap = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("");.Below is the code that am working with:

Manifest File:AndroidManifest.xml

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.example.cameraapp1">

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA"></uses-permission>

        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
        android:supportsRtl="true"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme">

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />

Answer 1

I've added resultCode == RESULT_OK and it worked.Alternatively resultCode != RESULT_CANCELED also worked.

if (requestCode == 100 && resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
            Bitmap bitmap = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("");
            imageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
        }

Answer 2

Try this :

protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) { 
if(resultCode != RESULT_CANCELED){
if (requestCode == CAMERA_REQUEST) {  
    Bundle bundle = data.getExtras();
            final Bitmap bitmap = (Bitmap) bundle.get("data");
            imageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
}
 }}

Answer 3

It's obvious error. You got null (no data) here : data.getExtras().get("") Add this

 if(data.getExtras() != null) {
   Bitmap bitmap = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data");
   imageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
}

Answer 4

protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) { 
if(resultCode != RESULT_CANCELED){
    if (requestCode == CAMERA_REQUEST) {  
        Bitmap photo = (Bitmap) data.getExtras().get("data"); 
        imageView.setImageBitmap(photo);
    }
}

}
