Streaming Media Player Tutorial Stops Unexpectedly. How Should I Debug (And Other Questions From A
- by Danny
Hello!
I'm a fledgling in the Android and Eclipse ways. I was reading and downloaded the source code for a Streaming Media Player tutorial from Pocket Journey, here. However, when I try to run it through the "Run As..." or "Debug As..." features in Eclipse, the emulator reports: "Sorry! The application Android Tutorials (process com.pocketjourney.tutorials) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
Now, from stepping through the Tutorial 1 activity (for those of you that may be familiar with it), it seems something funky happens here:
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
Toast.makeText(Tutorial1.this, "Button Clicked",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}});
My questions are:
What's up with that line? Apparently, other comments haven't had this problem; am I missing some library that I should be downloading from someplace?
How should I go about debugging this other than/in addition to stepping through code? I'm used to Visual Studio, which has a nice box with exception details for me to sift through and copy/paste to google with. Eclipse debugging showed a "No Source Code" page, or a list of exceptions. I've heard of something called LogCat; is that relevant here?
Thanks in advance!
