This is my code in Android Studio of building a register Activity for an Android app. I am getting these class Cast Exception errors every time I run my app. What could be the problem?
My RegisterActivity.java code:
{
private TextInputLayout inputEmail,inputPassword,inputConfirmPassword;
Button btnRegister;
TextView alreadyHaveAccount;
FirebaseAuth mAuth;
ProgressDialog mLoadingBar;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_register);
inputEmail = findViewById(R.id.inputEmail);
inputPassword = findViewById(R.id.inputPassword);
inputConfirmPassword = findViewById(R.id.inputConfirmPassword);
alreadyHaveAccount = findViewById(R.id.alreadyHaveAccount);
mAuth = FirebaseAuth.getInstance();
mLoadingBar = new ProgressDialog(this);
btnRegister.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
AttemptRegistration();
}
});
alreadyHaveAccount.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(RegisterActivity.this,LoginActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
});
}
private void AttemptRegistration() {
String email = inputEmail.getEditText().getText().toString();
String password = inputPassword.getEditText().getText().toString();
String confirmPassword= inputConfirmPassword.getEditText().getText().toString();
if (email.isEmpty() || !email.contains("@gmail.com"))
{
showError(inputEmail,"Email is not valid");
}
else if(password.isEmpty() || password.length()<5)
{
showError(inputPassword,"Password must be greater than 5 letters ");
}
else if(!confirmPassword.equals (password))
{
showError(inputConfirmPassword,"Password does not match");
}
else
{
mLoadingBar.setTitle("Registration");
mLoadingBar.setMessage("Please Wait, While we Check Your Credentials");
mLoadingBar.setCanceledOnTouchOutside(false);
mLoadingBar.show();
mAuth.createUserWithEmailAndPassword(email,password).addOnCompleteListener(new OnCompleteListener<AuthResult>() {
@Override
public void onComplete(@NonNull @org.jetbrains.annotations.NotNull Task<AuthResult> task) {
if(task.isSuccessful())
{
mLoadingBar.dismiss();
Toast.makeText(RegisterActivity.this, "Registration Successful", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
Intent intent = new Intent (RegisterActivity.this,SetupActivity.class);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK|Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
}
else
{
mLoadingBar.dismiss();
Toast.makeText(RegisterActivity.this, "Registration Failed", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
});
}
}
private void showError(TextInputLayout field, String text) {
field.setError(text);
field.requestFocus();
}
}
The xml file which is activity_register.xml for the same is as follows.
