My actual program is more complex and has more than one tab but I simplified it down to this in an attempt to find out why it's crashing but it still crashes and I don't know why.If I don't use LayoutInflator my program doesn't crash but I don't get any content either, just tabs.

However, when I use the Manager to install the platforms, I get the following error in the Terminal. I've looked around for similar problems in the Eclipse and Android forums and haven't found anything yet. Is something else damaged in the environment and needs to be repaired? Any recommendations on where I should look? Code...
I am receiving Text messages from another application sent through broadcast intent. I am displaying these messages to my application's GUI. In my application I had defined <broadcast receiver> in my manifest.xml
<receiver android:name=".HHBroadcastReceiver">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.demo.test"/>
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
And also define the logic in the Broadcast receiver class
public class HHBroadcastReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver { @Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { //TODO: React to the Intent received.
String msg_receive = intent.getStringExtra("message1");
AssetTest.hh_text.append("
"+msg_receive); } }

I've had fine luck using SQLite with straight, direct SQL in Android, but this is the first time I'm wrapping a DB in a ContentProvider. I keep getting a null pointer exception when calling getWritableDatabase() or getReadableDatabase().

When my app loads, I fill my android.app.Application with some data. The app runs fine as I use it and all the data is available. However, when I leave the app over night and look at it again the next day, I receive NullPointerExceptions when attempting to use that same data. I do not believe Application objects get garbage collected, so I have no idea what is going on? I also lose static objects in classes used by my Activity classes.

I have built an activity to handle gestures in my Android game and want it to respond to a gesture anywhere on the screen but I am getting this error on the Log:
CODE:...............
I understand I need to allocate a view to the activity and as you will see in my XML, a view called gestures will serve this purpose but I keep getting Inflation errors when trying to inflate the view. Before when this happened to me it was a misspelling of the view name in the XML but that's not it this time I don't think.
How would I properly assign the 'gesture' view to this activity to prevent the errors?
I have defined my activity in my code like this:

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to bring up the standard window for Bluetooth Settings (with Device name, Discoverability etc). However, general approach with startActivity(intent) ends with NullPointerException pointing to BluetoothSettings.java onCreate:135. Checking with the Android code, I've found that at line 135 they get some extras from the intent. So I prepare the same extras (names I've found in android core BluetoothDevicePicker interface) and issue it -- the same effect with NullPointerException. Might be the wrongs names of the extras I prepare? So is there a way I can see those extras (with names especially) from the intent the system itself submits when I open Bluetooth Settings manually acting like a user. Code...

My app creates a temp file with a simple call to:
FileOutputStream fos = openFileOutput("MY_TEMP.TXT",Mode);
It works fine because I can write to it and read it normally.
The problem is that when I exit from the app I want to delete this file. I used:
File f = new File(System.getProperty("user.dir"),"MY_TEMP.TXT");
f.delete()
But it always returns false and the file is not deleted.
I have tried
File f = new File("MY_TEMP.TXT");
f.delete();
And it does not work either.
I'm currently working on an XMPP app' on Android and I'm pondering about the best way to throw a different type of Exception than a RemoteException to my activity from my service.
As it seems impossible to throw another thing than a RemoteException using IPC (you can't declare to throw anything in your .aidl), I just see two solutions:
Create a listener for my activity to listen on my custom XMPP exception, which in fact will not be thrown but just sent as a usual object implementing the Parcelable protocol.
Catch my XMPPException and throw a RemoteException (with a content updated with my XMPPException) - But in that case, how could I know on my activity if it's an XMPP or a real RemoteException ? By tagging the name of the exception and parsing it on my activity ? It would be really gore.
