I'm trying to create a button in a custom view that I've created. I'm looping through an XML document and drawing certain things. I want to be able to also create buttons to go in certain locations depending on the xml data. I'd like to do it in the view because I want to be able to call invalidate() on my view to redraw things and replace the buttons when new xml data is available.
The problem is that I put my code in the view class, the activity crashes because the button is "null". Here is a subset of my code: Java: @Override protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) { // Clock-size rectangle to draw compliance windows RectF clockRect = new RectF(86, 6, 394, 314); // Create a node list containing each reminder NodeList reminderNodes = this.clockXML.getElementsByTagName ("AdherenceInterval"); int reminderLength = reminderNodes.getLength(); Button checkbox = (Button) findViewById(R.id.checkbox); checkbox.setLayoutParams(new AbsoluteLayout.LayoutParams (LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, 0, 0)); checkbox.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener() { public void onClick(View v) { Context context = v.getContext(); Intent i = new Intent(context, ReportMedications.class); context.startActivity(i); } }); I know this code works for creating buttons because I can put it in my activity class and it works just fine. Any suggestions? I thought about relocating the button in the activity, but I can't figure out how to do this when new data is available. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
