Android Question Initialize a listview

[peggjones]

I have added a listview to an activity via the designer. When I try to add a single line to it it says that I must initialize it first. How can this be? I thought that is exactly what you are not supposed to do.

Thanks

Have you "Generated Members" using the designer? (Tools -> Generate Members)

Hi

It isn't necessary. I think that the name of your listview in the designer not is the same that in your code. You should review the names of the variables.

The name is definitely the same. I have had to define the listview in a dim statement as well otherwise the program won't compile. The listview is in a second activity not the main one, if this gives a clue.

You cannot define views in one activity and use it in another, I suggest you read the documentation, I have links to it in my signature below.
