Question

I have following code:

public class reader extends Activity {

    WebView mWebView;
    String mFilename;

    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView1);
        setContentView(R.layout.webview);
        mWebView.loadUrl("http://www.google.com");

     }

}

When I run this, the emulator shows “Sorry:.. mireader Stopped unexpectedly” error.. Why ?

Answer 1

Why do you have setContentView(R.layout.webview);? You already call setContentView two lines before.

And do you have the android.permission.INTERNET permission in your AndroidManifest.xml?

Also, you should attach the logcat output as that’ll probably give you a callstack pointing you in the general direction of the problem.
