hello everyone,
i am trying to run an application on an android emulator, but it crashes. i am following a howto
i don't know what to do, it just crashes. other applications are running fine, can anyone tell me what i am doing wrong.here is the code:
public class Finder extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
private LocationManager myLocationManager;
private LocationListener myLocationListener;
private TextView myLatitude, myLongitude;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
myLatitude = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.Latitude);
myLongitude = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.Longitude);
myLocationManager = (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
myLocationListener = new MyLocationListener();
myLocationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER,0,0,myLocationListener);
myLatitude.setText(String.valueOf(
myLocationManager.getLastKnownLocation(
LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER).getLatitude()));
myLongitude.setText(String.valueOf(
myLocationManager.getLastKnownLocation(
LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER).getLongitude()));
}
private class MyLocationListener implements LocationListener{
public void onLocationChanged(Location argLocation) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
myLatitude.setText(String.valueOf(
argLocation.getLatitude()));
myLongitude.setText(String.valueOf(
argLocation.getLongitude()));
}
public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
public void onProviderEnabled(String provider) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
public void onStatusChanged(String provider,
int status, Bundle extras) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
};
}
i looked in the logcat after running the application, it seems that the following lines are cause of the problem but i don't understand it:(
