Hi all I need help with my code. I am accessing a datasnapshot of a current user logged in into firebase. I want to dynamically set the values of my bar chart with what is in the database. I set the global variables at the top of my code and set them in the anonymous inner method where I call the datasnapshot of the current user logged in. When I try set the Bar chart entrys outside this anonymous inner method it says the values are null. I have used a log and the varibales are null outside the anonymous inner method but theyre filled within it. But I cannot set the bar chart within the method please help me.You can see a Toast method in my code within that on the emulator I display the needed values of fats proteins and carbs. These values become null outside the anonymous inner method Where I need to set the new Bar chart entries.
