It means that, at the line where you got that error, you are trying to use a variable which has not been initialized.

Member Avatar for rena0514

thanks but i really dont see what it is that i am missing? :-(

Member Avatar for BestJewSinceJC 
return (tr.setPrice() + tp.setPrice() + tq.setPrice());

If you look in your BillPanel class, you never initialized any of those variables. Therefore, there contents are null, and you are getting a NullPointerException. How do you expect to say tr.setPrice() when you never created "tr"? Essentially tr at that point is just an empty variable with nothing in it. You have to say tr = new PizzaPanel() at some point in your code before you try to use the variable tr. The same goes for all of your other variables.

I have redone this entire program and now i have no exceptions no errors but when i click the done button to show the price this is what i get

The total is: Total[,0,0,0x0,invalid,layout=java.awt.FlowLayout,alignmentX=0.0,alignmentY=0.0,border=,flags=9,maximumSize=,minimumSize=,preferredSize=]

here is my program redo:

why is the output like that?

return (tr.setPrice() + tp.setPrice() + tq.setPrice());

If you look in your BillPanel class, you never initialized any of those variables. Therefore, there contents are null, and you are getting a NullPointerException. How do you expect to say tr.setPrice() when you never created "tr"? Essentially tr at that point is just an empty variable with nothing in it. You have to say tr = new PizzaPanel() at some point in your code before you try to use the variable tr. The same goes for all of your other variables.

that really helped now my output is wrong...look at my new reply please
