I'm working on a restaurant application. It starts with a login screen then according to the user, it starts the correct dashboard.
I'm trying to fill a label and 2 comboboxes on the dashboard on its start but I keep getting NullPointerException on all of them.
I followed the function using IntelliJ debugger and found out it navigates to "timepulse()" function javafx.animation.Animation and that is what returns null.
My code:
public class CustomerController {
static Stage window;
public ComboBox<TableType> tableTypeCB;
public ComboBox<DishType> categoryCB;
public Label nameLabel;
private static int userID;
private void fillOnStart(String name)
{
nameLabel.setText("Hello, " + name);
tableTypeCB.getItems().addAll(RestaurantData.restaurant.getTableTypes().getTableTypes());
categoryCB.getItems().addAll(RestaurantData.restaurant.getDishTypes().getDishTypes());
}
public void start(int ID,String name) throws IOException {
userID=ID;
window = new Stage();
window.setTitle("Hakuna Matata Restaurant");
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(CookerController.class.getResource("/restaurant/Customer-nReserv.fxml"));
Scene scene = new Scene (root, 1024, 720);
scene.getStylesheets().add(CustomerController.class.getResource("bootstrap3.css").toExternalForm());
fillOnStart(name);
window.setScene(scene);
window.show();
}
}
start function is called when the user enters a correct username and password to start the Customer Dashboard.
That is the error I get
