Question

I get this error on my debugger when i try to edit the value manually: Generated value (int) is not compatible with the declared type (android.view.View)

    final View l = findViewById(R.id.GameplayLayout);
    Animation a = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(MainActivity.this,
    android.R.anim.fade_out);
    a.setAnimationListener(new AnimationListener() {
        public void onAnimationEnd(Animation animation) {
            fadein();
        }

        public void onAnimationRepeat(Animation animation) {
        }

        public void onAnimationStart(Animation animation) {
        }

    });
    l.startAnimation(a);

It selects:

    l.startAnimation(a);

as error line, in the debugger it says:

    l = null;

Why is it doing this to me? 🙁

Thank you!

I had to use R.id.startscreen… Fail… Sorry!

Try calling setContentView(R.layout.GameplayLayout) before finding views.
