package fsg.mpssri.MEGAMAG;

import java.util.ArrayList;

import android.content.Context;
import android.content.DialogInterface;

import com.google.android.maps.ItemizedOverlay;
import com.google.android.maps.OverlayItem;

public class ListItimizedOverlay extends ItemizedOverlay<OverlayItem> {

    public CallMeclass clme;
    public String phoneNum = "55-223-014";
    public GeoloMe geololome; 
    private Context context;
    private ArrayList<OverlayItem> arrayListOverlayItem = new ArrayList<OverlayItem>();
    public ListItimizedOverlay(Drawable defaultMarker) {
        // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub

        super(boundCenterBottom(defaultMarker));
    }

    public ListItimizedOverlay(Drawable defaultMarker, Context pContext) 
    {
      super(boundCenterBottom(defaultMarker));
      this.context = pContext;
    }

    @Override
    protected OverlayItem createItem(int i) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return arrayListOverlayItem.get(i);
    }

    @Override
    public int size() {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return arrayListOverlayItem.size();
    }

    @Override

        OverlayItem item = arrayListOverlayItem.get(index);
          AlertDialog.Builder dialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(context);
          dialog.setIcon(R.drawable.icon__telephone);
          dialog.setTitle(item.getTitle());
          dialog.setMessage(item.getSnippet());
           //phoneNum = item.getSnippet();
          dialog.setPositiveButton("call us", new OnClickListener() {

            @Override

                Toast.makeText(context, "azerty", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);

              clme.goCallMe(phoneNum);


            }


        });
          dialog.show();
          return true;
    }

    public void addOverlayItem(OverlayItem overlay) 
    {
        arrayListOverlayItem.add(overlay);
        populate();
    }




private class CallMeclass extends Activity{

    private void goCallMe(String phonenumber ) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        Intent i = new
                Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_CALL,
                        Uri.parse(phonenumber));
        startActivity(i);
    }
}

}

Hope you can help me my friends thanks

Answer 1

You are not instantiating clme anywhere. That's why you get the NPE.

Do clme = new CallMeclass(); first before calling the method.

You don't need the CallMeclass here. You can directly fire the intent from your click handler.
