Several errors when running testing android application
I am trying to test a simple android application from an android development book and I reached a point when running the application gets me an error message. Unfortunately app has stopped. (When I take out setStarUpScreenText(); the application runs but the desired text does not appear. MainActivity
package chaper.two.hello_world;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
WorldGen earth = new WorldGen("Earth", 5973, 9.78); //Create a World Object
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
setStartUpWorldValues();
setStarUpScreenText(); //when this is removed, application runs but text from object is not displayed.
}
protected void setStartUpWorldValues(){
earth.setPlanetColonies(1); //Set Planet Colonies to one
earth.setPlanetMilitary(1); //Set Planet Military Bases to on
earth.setColonyImmigration(1000); //Set Planet Population to 1,000
earth.setBaseProtection(100); //Set Planet Armed Forces to 100
earth.turnForceFieldOn(); // Turn On the Planet Forcefield
}
protected void setStarUpScreenText(){
//sets up text for each View
TextView planetNameValue = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.DataView1);
planetNameValue.setText(earth.planetName);
TextView planetMassValue = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.DataView2);
planetMassValue.setText(earth.planetMass);
TextView planetGravityValue = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.DataView3);
planetGravityValue.setText(String.valueOf(earth.planetGravity));

According to LogCat, you are missing the refered string resource:
Caused by: android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException: String resource ID #0x1755
In line 28
at chaper.two.hello_world.MainActivity.setStarUpScreenText(MainActivity.java:28)
Wich would be this line:
planetMassValue.setText(earth.planetMass);
It seems that your res/values/strings.xml is missing the string that the atribute planetMass, from the object earth, of class WorldGen is pointing to.
In case the string is there, and you are referring to it correctly, there might be some problem with the R file. So just do a Project -> Clean, so that R file gets rebuilt.
