My app was running fine, albiet with no functionality, but since I added support for gestures (code adapted from a tutorial) it now just crashes on running.
package com.mystraldesign.memorable;
import android.app.Activity;
//import android.gesture.GestureOverlayView;
import android.gesture.GestureOverlayView;
import android.gesture.GestureOverlayView.OnGestureListener;
import android.graphics.Typeface;
import android.os.Bundle;
//import android.widget.RelativeLayout;
import android.view.GestureDetector;
import android.view.GestureDetector.OnDoubleTapListener;
import android.view.MotionEvent;
import android.view.Window;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class MemorableActivity extends Activity implements OnGestureListener,OnDoubleTapListener
{
//Define text views
private TextView textView1;
private TextView textView2;
private TextView textView3;
private TextView textView4;
//Gesture Detectors
private GestureDetector gTap;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
gTap = new GestureDetector(this,(android.view.GestureDetector.OnGestureListener) this);
//Remove title bar
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
//Define textView
textView1 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView1);
textView2 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView2);
textView3 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView3);
textView4 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView4);
//Load font file
Typeface type = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(),"fonts/optima.ttf");
//Set various textViews to font
textView1.setTypeface(type);
textView2.setTypeface(type);
textView3.setTypeface(type);
textView4.setTypeface(type);
}
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent me){
this.gTap.onTouchEvent(me);
return super.onTouchEvent(me);
}
public boolean onDown(MotionEvent e) {
textView1.setText("Down");
return false;
}
public boolean onFling(MotionEvent e1, MotionEvent e2, float velocityX,
float velocityY) {
textView1.setText("Fling");
return false;
}
public void onLongPress(MotionEvent e) {
textView1.setText("Long Press");
}
public boolean onScroll(MotionEvent e1, MotionEvent e2, float distanceX,
float distanceY) {
textView1.setText("Scroll");
return false;
}
public void onShowPress(MotionEvent e) {
textView1.setText("Show Press");
}
public boolean onSingleTapUp(MotionEvent e) {
textView1.setText("Sing Tap Up");
return false;
}
public boolean onDoubleTap(MotionEvent e) {
textView1.setText("Double Tap");
return false;
}
public boolean onDoubleTapEvent(MotionEvent e) {
textView1.setText("Double Tap Event");
return false;
}
public boolean onSingleTapConfirmed(MotionEvent e) {
textView1.setText("Single Tap Confirmed");
return false;
}
}
I removed a @override statment from the start of each of the methods as Eclipse was stating an Error with them and gave the auto-fix to be remove the @override statements.
It also gave an error on the public class MemorableActivity extends Activity implements OnGestureListener,OnDoubleTapListener line which is:
Multiple markers at this line
- The type MemorableActivity must implement the inherited abstract method
GestureOverlayView.OnGestureListener.onGestureEnded(GestureOverlayView, MotionEvent)
- The type MemorableActivity must implement the inherited abstract method
GestureOverlayView.OnGestureListener.onGestureCancelled(GestureOverlayView, MotionEvent)
- The type MemorableActivity must implement the inherited abstract method
GestureOverlayView.OnGestureListener.onGestureStarted(GestureOverlayView, MotionEvent)
- The type MemorableActivity must implement the inherited abstract method
GestureOverlayView.OnGestureListener.onGesture(GestureOverlayView, MotionEvent)
It suggested the fixes of
Add unimplemented methods
Make MemorableActivity abstract
Rename in file
Rename in workspace
I tried the first two but it still crashes and I’m not sure what the second and third one are/do.
The doesn’t seem to be anything in the log but here is the output from console

You are implementing one type of
OnGestureListenerbut casting to another. Change your Activity class statement to this:and then implement the necessary methods and your crash should stop happening.
