This code to change text when the user presses a button doesn't work. Why?
package com.cookbook.simple_activity;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class activity extends Activity {
private TextView txt = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.hello_text);
Button startButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.trigger);
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_simple);
startButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
txt.setText(R.string.pressthisbutton);
}
});
}
}
