Question

I’m trying to use SafeViewFlipper (http://pastie.org/1086467) Crash when rotating Activity using ViewFlipper

but I don’t know how to do it..

When I try this the application crashes (ClassCastException)

SafeViewFlipper controlsFlipper;
controlsFlipper = (SafeViewFlipper) findViewById(R.id.controlsFlipper);

in the layout.xml..

<ViewFlipper android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:id="@+id/controlsFlipper">

Reference the SafeViewFlipper in xml with the full package name. E.g.

<com.example.view.SafeViewFlipper android:layout_width="fill_parent" ..... />
