Hi! The API (http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/ SharedPreferences.OnSharedPreferenceChangeListener.html) states that onSharedPreferenceChanged is run on "your main thread". With this believe I implemented a activity which is registered as a SharedPreferenceListener within onStart and unregistered in onStop. When a broadcast receiver changes the sharedPreference of interest I receive an exception "android.view.ViewRoot$CalledFromWrongThreadException: Only the original thread that created a view hierarchy can touch its views."
Why is this? I'm aware of the fact to use handlers for this kind of problem but is the API wrong or do I misinterpret the writing "your main thread" ? I read it as: "Since it's on the main thread you don't have to worry..." best reagards, Gerhard -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
