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));
TextView planetColoniesValue = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.DataView4);
planetColoniesValue.setText(String.valueOf(earth.planetColonies));
