Android : App Stopping Unexpectedly When Built XML Layout File
Jul 17, 2010
I've built the bare bones of my app so far in Eclipse using an adapted version of the LunarLander app provided by Android Developers. I've adjusted bits and pieces and have no errors at all though when I run it in the emulator it keeps saying "the application has stopped unexpectedly" and i have to Force Close.
Is it possible that my main.xml layout file is causing this issue? Mine looks like this:
CODE:..............
But their's looks like:
CODE:.............
Could this be responsible for the app being unable to launch? If I need to post my code I will but its over 900 lines so thought I would just see if this was possibly the problem first?

And it comes up to tell me to force close it, so I click that, and it just repeatedly pops up with the same window over and over. It won't let me do anything else.

Is it possible to build a GridView object in XML with 3 columns and 4 rows of Image buttons? It doesn't seem to have similar containment relationship like LinearLayout or RelativeLayout viewgroups.
I want to do this entirely in an xml layout file. When I put ImageButton xml tags inside a GridView xml body, The layout panel in eclipse is throwing an exception: UnsupportedOperationException:addView(View, LayoutParams) is not supported in AdapterView.

I deleted something in TB and I'm not sure what but it's needed for Google Play. It says the app stopped unexpectedly. I installed the latest Google Play apk and that didn't fix it either.
Here are all the google related apps I currently have installed.

I have done many of reverse engineering for other electronics in the past, Since Im new to android I was wondering before even wasting my time if is possible to port, or built a rom from sources or a phone thatis NOT External SD built in to a phone that it have the external sd built in.
Making it short can I try to reverse engineer the android code from a Nexus 5 (no ext_sd) to other device that have ext_sd built in?
If is possible where should I be looking to start trying making some development on this as I haven't done nothing close quite.

I've been trying to create a Compound Control in Android 1.5 (as described here) but haven't been able to find any good examples on how to do this using an XML file to specify a layout. Create Custom Component based on LinearLayout, declaring layout in XMLI'm fine with creating an Activity and then loading an xml file using the following in the constructor:
setContentView(R.layout.main);
However, I want to do this in subclass of LinearLayout - so I can use this compound component in other XML layouts. Something along the lines of:
public class CustomView extends LinearLayout
{ public CustomView(Context context) {
super(context);
setupView();
} public CustomView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs)
{ super(context, attrs);
setupView();
} public void setupView() {
setContentView(R.layout.custom);
// Not possible } }
What is the correct way of going about doing this?

Using eclipse 3.4.1 and also 3.5 and I cannot seem to add a new layout .xml file.I tried adding it externally using windows explorer, but got all these errors.
[2009-08-21 00:01:54 - TestAndroid] (skipping index file 'C:workspaceTestProject
esdrawableThumbs.db') [2009-08-21 00:01:54 - TestAndroid] reslayoutTest1.xml: Invalid file name: must contain only [a-z0-9_.] [2009-08-21 00:01:54 - TestAndroid] reslayoutTest1.xml: Invalid file name: must contain only [a-z0-9_.]
Then i tried right click on the layout folder, selected new Android XML file and I got this --
The selected wizard could not be started. Plug-in com.android.ide.eclipse.adt was unable to load class com.android.ide.eclipse.editors.wizards.NewXmlFileWizard. com.android.ide.eclipse.editors.wizards.NewXmlFileWizard
I tried both versions of eclipse, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the ADT plugin. Nothing seems to be working!

I'm interested in instantiating a LinearLayout object from an xml file that has a LinearLayout file configuration. I want to do this within a method of my Activity. I tried findViewById() but that returned null. I've made sure that the LinearLayout id is the one I'm passing. Note that this layout isn't part of my screen, it's stand-alone, so I want to build a LinearLayout object from the xml.

Seems to me that I should be able to set the colors of the SeekBar thumb, slider, and progress bar in my layout xml file. However, I don't see relevant attributes for these SeekBar components. I only want to change the colors, not replace any images being used for the thumb, etc. What am I missing?

I was wondering if it were possible to dynamically create an XML layout file to be displayed to the user. The idea would be to be able to retrieve a layout file from a central server, which could display this dynamic, server driven GUI.

How to make custom AVD skins by editing the layout file and associated .png files in the android-sdk-windowsplatformsandroid-nnnskins folders. The syntax of the layout file is simple and pretty self-explanatory but I'm curious about it ...
Is it meant to be hand-edited or is it generated from some tool or utility I should be using?
Any idea why they used this curly-brace syntax instead of something standard like XML?

I'm dealing with a problem you guys might not have faced earlier. I'm having a use-case in my Android application where the actual screen that I want to show to user is not stored in any layout file of my application. The layout of the of the screen is designed by server in this case, based on selection made by user on first screen.
Let me elaborate here,
1st Screen : List of check box with different biller names. (Imagine I've selected 2 billers from this screen)
2nd Screen : (The screen that server has decided how it should look like)
* Header,
* 1st Biller name (Label)
* Amount for 1st Biller TextBox
* Image (a Separator image)
* 2st Biller name (Label)
* Amount for 2st Biller TextBox.
* Here there can be a checbox/radio/another TextBox anything.
* Image (a Separator image)
* Button (to submit above form back to server)
I hope makes some sense in what I'm planning to design. The current issues I'm dealing with are as below.
1). How to draw this dynamic widgets?
2). How to fetch user Inputs from this dynamically created widgets?

not sure how to inflate this from my layout file: MyView v = LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.myview, null); the inflater of course does not know what 'MyView' type is, and returns only View. What's a good way to reconcile this?

I created my style in styles.xml, lets say MyStyle. I can use it in any layout file by style="@style/MyStyle". Also my generated R class have R.style.MyStyle, my question is if I can use it at runtime to "setStyle" - unfortunately View doesn't have such a method. If not what is R.style.MyStyle used for? (I already know that custom themes IDs are also in R.style and can be used to setTheme, but MyStyle is not a theme).

I'm trying to create a simple text based game in which I ask a question based on a movie. The list of movie's is in a text file which I've included in res/raw. So basically I want to have a default string, say "Who acted in", followed by the name of the movie. Could I have the first string (along with a submit button etc) in my res/layout/main.xml file, and follow that with the movies name, after I've extracted it from the text file in my activity, or does the layout have to be defined in one place only?

1. Can I call ADT Layout Editor in my java source file, not by XML file "open with" menu ?
2. When I click "add" button in the outline view of ADT Layout Editor , it will show such a list of UI components as "AbsoluteLayout AnalogClock AutoCompleteTextView Button ....." My question is where it gets this list? Can I config this path to get my customized UI components?

I have a button which I want to occupy 75% of the screen:
On a 480x800 resolution screen this would be 360 pixels wide.
On a 280x320 resolution screen this would be 210 pixels wide.
How do I go about specifying this in my layout XML file?
I understand there is a DIP unit of measurement, but does that also work to scale screen images for resolutions? What DIP measurement would I use for this, and do the images need to be saved at 160dpi.

I'm able to successfully use a ScrollView inside the layout xml file for an application. However, when I tried using a ScrollView inside the layout xml file for a widget, I get a "Problem Loading Widget" error as soon as I drop the widget in the emulator. If I comment out the ScrollView, then the widget shows up in the emulator. I've pasted my layout xml file below. Any thoughts on how to get past this error would be much appreciated.
