Strange exception in ListView Android

Question

I am getting an exception but could not get where exactly the exception occured. I searched but could not get the my project name in the stacktrace.

Below is my stacktrace

My project package name is

com.stylingandroid.IntelligentLayout.SecondaryLayout;

I could not see my package name at all Before I had an exception which I set it right the exception was

02-13 15:39:25.756: W/System.err(379): Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: Your content must have a ListView whose id attribute is 'android.R.id.list'

I changed my ListView Id to android:id="@id/android:list" and in java code I changed the adapter as

  setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,android.R.id.list, STATE));
   getListView().setTextFilterEnabled(true);

My class extends ListActivity

public class StateList extends ListActivity{

Looking forward to your reply. thanks.

then how will I work with setListAdapter `setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter(this,android.R.id.list, STATE)); getListView().setTextFilterEnabled(true);` when changed to just Activity I am getting as method setListAdapter is undefined. `super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id); Object o = this.getListAdapter().getItem(position);` method on listItem is undefined for Activity. The method `getListAdapter()` is undefined for the type StateList. — Mukunda, Feb 13 '12 at 10:45

thanks, but I have many TextView in my layout and my layout is big, I tried with calling the layout first and then the TextView later, but getting exceptions. I get exception here ` setContentView(R.layout.statelist_layout);` and later I use TextView ` setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter(this,R.id.listitem, STATE));` The exception I am getting is `W/dalvikvm(455): threadid=1: thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0x4001d800)`. — Mukunda, Feb 13 '12 at 12:07

Please check the ListView specs in Android developer forum: http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/views/hello-listview.html

The below method needs a layout resource which is used to display each item in the listview.

setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.list_item, COUNTRIES));

list_item.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:padding="10dp"
    android:textSize="16sp" >
</TextView>

So, here every list item will be shown as a TextView.

I get exception here ` setContentView(R.layout.statelist_layout);` and later I use TextView ` setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter(this,R.id.listitem, STATE));` The exception I am getting is `W/dalvikvm(455): threadid=1: thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0x4001d800)`. — Mukunda, Feb 13 '12 at 12:06

Seems like a resource is missing 0x102000a. You need to reverse reference this value from your R.java and find the resource that is causing this issue.

I also suspect that you have used a id of your own, and not android.R.id.list to identify your resource in your layout xml file.

Refer to What is difference between @+id/android:list and @+id/list

ListView is not as straight forward as other widgets. Takes a bit of more detailed study to get it working. I went through that cycle :).

I had the same problem. My class was extending ListActivity, I change to Activity and now is running.
