android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException: String resource ID #0x0

Question

I'm developing an Android app which reads data from MySQL database and I faced this error. I have this XML layout:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> 
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" 
android:layout_width="match_parent" 
android:layout_height="match_parent" 
android:orientation="vertical" > 


        <TextView android:id="@+id/wardNumber" 
            android:layout_width="wrap_content" 
            android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
            android:layout_marginLeft="3dp" 
            android:text="Ward Number" 
            android:textSize="22dp"/> 


        <TextView android:id="@+id/dateTime" 
            android:layout_width="wrap_content" 
            android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
            android:layout_below="@id/wardNumber" 
            android:layout_alignParentRight="true" 
            android:layout_marginRight="3dp" 
            android:text="Date-Time" />

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/name"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_alignBaseline="@+id/dateTime"
            android:layout_alignBottom="@+id/dateTime"
            android:layout_alignLeft="@+id/wardNumber"
            android:layout_marginLeft="3dp" 
            android:text="Name" />

</RelativeLayout>

And this is the my Java file:

public ApplicationAdapter(Context context, List<Application> items) {
    super(context, R.layout.app_custom_list, items);
    this.items = items;
}

@Override
public int getCount() {
    return items.size();
}

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
    View v = convertView;

    if(v == null) {
        LayoutInflater li = LayoutInflater.from(getContext());
        v = li.inflate(R.layout.app_custom_list, null);            
    }

    Application app = items.get(position);

    if(app != null) {
      //  ImageView icon = (ImageView)v.findViewById(R.id.appIcon);
        TextView wardNumber = (TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.wardNumber);
        TextView name = (TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.name);
      //  LinearLayout ratingCntr = (LinearLayout)v.findViewById(R.id.ratingCntr);
        TextView dateTime = (TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.dateTime);

  //      if(icon != null) {
  //          Resources res = getContext().getResources();
   //         String sIcon = "com.sj.jsondemo:drawable/" + app.getIcon();
   //         icon.setImageDrawable(res.getDrawable(res.getIdentifier(sIcon, null, null)));
   //     }

        if(wardNumber != null) wardNumber.setText(app.getTitle());

        if(name != null) name.setText(app.getTitle());

        if(dateTime != null) {
            dateTime.setText(app.getTotalDl());
          //  NumberFormat nf = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance();
          //  dateTime.setText(nf.format(app.getTotalDl())+" dl");            
        }


    }

    return v;
}
}

When this Activity is called, I receive this error message:

Change

dateTime.setText(app.getTotalDl());

To

dateTime.setText(String.valueOf(app.getTotalDl()));

There are different versions of setText - one takes a String and one takes an int resource id. If you pass it an integer it will try to look for the corresponding string resource id - which it can't find, which is your error.

I guess app.getTotalDl() returns an int. You need to specifically tell setText to set it to the String value of this int.

setText (int resid) vs setText (CharSequence text)

setText(int resId) doesn't even have javadoc attached to it. They should really have given that one a separate name -- obviously a common misuse here. So, specifying the resId sets a TextView's text to be the text of another resource? – Stealth Rabbi Feb 19 '16 at 15:45

Replace

dateTime.setText(app.getTotalDl());

With

dateTime.setText(""+app.getTotalDl());

If we get the value as int and we set it to String, the error occurs. PFB my solution,

Textview = tv_property_count;
int property_id;
tv_property_count.setText(String.valueOf(property_id));

if you get the values in int you have to use string for that it is throwing the error

before

  holder.villageName.setText(villageModelList.get(position).getVillageName());
    holder.villageCount.setText(villageModelList.get(position).getPeopleCount());
    holder.peopleCount.setText(villageModelList.get(position).getPeopleCount());

after

  holder.villageName.setText(villageModelList.get(position).getVillageName());
    holder.villageCount.setText(String.valueOf(villageModelList.get(position).getPeopleCount()));
    holder.peopleCount.setText(String.valueOf(villageModelList.get(position).getPeopleCount()));

you can solve the error by adding the String.valueOf

If you are using Kotlin

dateTime.setText(
    app.getTotalDl().toString()
)

If the problem persists and you are using data binding in case, please recheck your android:text attribute.

When you try to set text in Edittext or textview you should pass only String format.

dateTime.setText(app.getTotalDl());

to

dateTime.setText(String.valueOf(app.getTotalDl()));

The evaluated value for settext was integer so it went to see a resource attached to it but it was not found, you wanted to set text so it should be string so convert integer into string by attaching .toStringe or String.valueOf(int) will solve your problem!
