NullPointer exception in facebook logout
<p>Can some one please help me to solve nullpointer exception in my following code in </p>

<p>I've got the following <code>FoodStarLoginActivity</code>. The following line is throwing a NullPointer but I don't understand why :<code>facebook.logout(FoodStarLoginActivity.this);</code> could anyone help me out? I even tried <code>getApplicationcontext()</code> instead of my <code>FoodStarLoginActivity</code> but it didn't work.</p>

<pre><code>I am getting following exception  :
java.lang.NullPointerException
