ERROR/AndroidRuntime(631): FATAL EXCEPTION: main, ERROR/AndroidRuntime(631): java.lang.StackOverflowError

I'm developing a Baby Names app. I'm getting runtime exception while developing the App. Here is some part of the log file.

11-06 01:37:00.970: WARN/dalvikvm(631): threadid=1: thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0x4001d800)
11-06 01:37:01.040: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(631): FATAL EXCEPTION: main
11-06 01:37:01.040: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(631): java.lang.StackOverflowError
11-06 01:37:01.040: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(631): at balu.android.CommonNameTable.<init>(CommonNameTable.java:59)
11-06 01:37:01.040: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(631): at balu.android.CommonNameTable.<init>(CommonNameTable.java:59)

The functionality of App is going to be like this.

  1. Select activity contains a menu, having the following items.

    Common names
    Uncommon names
    Names popular in a specific city

https://github.com/Balu-Varanasi/BabyNamesApp/blob/master/src/balu/android/Select.java - is the link to the Select Activity.

2.When the user selects - "Common names" -

a new Activity will be launched. I contains a ListView, of all the names from CommonNameTable in the SQLite database. In the constructor of the table, I tried to insert records from the file "commonnames.txt". Here is the links to the classes I have written.

I think this is the source of the problem.

https://github.com/Balu-Varanasi/BabyNamesApp/blob/master/src/balu/android/CommonNames.java

Could you please help me in fixing this problem?

You are calling the CommonNameTable's constructor recursively, Please remove the line indicated below

public CommonNameTable(Context ctx) {

    this.mCtx = ctx;
    //REMOVE THIS LINE
    CommonNameTable commonNameTable = new CommonNameTable(this.mCtx);
    ....
}
