I am having a problem where my application is unexpectdly stopping. This is meant to be a simply application that let’s the user enter in the number of dice and a filter number. It is crashing unexpectedly, even though I cleaned it multiple times.
Here is the java file:
package com.greg.rostov.dice;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
public class DiceRoller extends Activity {
DiceRoller r=new DiceRoller();
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Button roll=(Button)findViewById(R.id.roll);
roll.setOnClickListener(onRoll);
}
private View.OnClickListener onRoll=new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v){
EditText numberofdice=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.roll);
EditText filterdice=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.roll);
}
};
private String numberofdice="";
private String filterdice="";
public String getNumberofdice() {
return(numberofdice);
}
public void setNumberofdice(String numberofdice){
this.numberofdice=numberofdice;
}
public String getFilterdice() {
return(filterdice);
}
public void setFilterdice(String filterdice){
this.filterdice=filterdice;
}
}
And here is the error log:

I suspect your problem is in your XML file, here:
What you’re doing here is passing in a string to a field which should take a color or drawable reference. As far as I know it doesn’t matter if the string in question is a valid color string (like #012). This won’t be treated like a preprocessor macro where the text is substituted in, rather it will look it up at runtime and get a value it doesn’t expect.
To fix it, change the definition from
to
and refer to it in your layout file as
