Android - Looking for help with force close on application.

Answer 1

A:

Check out the logcat to see the error...it would be displayed against your package name in red color....This is the only method to check the Force Close type of errors....

Answer 2

A:

Rohan is right, inside Eclipse you open the DDMS perspective, you'll see a tab called "Logcat" which contains all the printed logs and includes also a detailed stacktrace of the exception which caused the Force Close popup to appear.

You miss probably the the "super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)" in your onCreate method.

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(...);

        ...
    }

Wow thank you! So here's what happened...i had public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {because the tutorial had "Bundle icicle" not sure why, or what that even means, and when i put in "savedInstanceState" it errored, but once I changed it to "super.onCreate(icicle);" it worked no problem
