Convert android.graphics.path value into String?

Question

I have an ArrayList of Path values. I need to convert it into String values and know what all coordinates were covered in the Path. Here's the code that I worked up:

private ArrayList<Path> pointsToDraw = new ArrayList<Path>();
private List<String> stringPoints ;



synchronized(pointsToDraw){
                    for(Path path : pointsToDraw)
                    {
                        stringPoints.add(String.valueOf(path));
                    }

                    TextView b1Text = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.GText);
                    for(String s : stringPoints)
                    {
                        b1Text.setText(s);
                    }
                    }

I get an exception during runtime. The following is the log content :

Where am I going wrong? Please help!

stringPoints has not been allocated a list.

Change:

private List<String> stringPoints ;

to:

private List<String> stringPoints = new ArrayList<String>();
