Android client: Basic connection - NullPointer Exception [message #1396745]

I created an MQTTAndroidClient. But when I call methods associated with the object like:
cleint.isConnected(); client.publish(); client.subscribe();
I get a NullPointerException. What could be the problem with my code. Here is a snippet:

try {
IMqttToken clientToken = clientOne.connect(connOpts,this, new StatusListener());
//clientOne.registerResources(this);

//clientToken.waitForCompletion();
System.out.println("connecting");

} catch (MqttException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

if (clientOne.isConnected()) {
Intent statusIntent = new Intent(this, ConnStatus.class);
startActivity(statusIntent);
}

I'd appreciate any help! Thanks!

We should catch the the situation causing the NullPointer issue but the reason you're having this problem is that the client is asynchronous, so the call to connect returns immediately but it does not mean that you are connected so the call to isConnected() is happening before the client has completed connecting.

Yes. I figured that out as well. And I implemented the methods after the callback. Onsuccess(). But is this the best way to do this? Then why not using blocking client ?
