PreferenceScreen在更新应用程序后不显示摘要

Question

So, I have this xml for PreferenceScreen .

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<PreferenceScreen xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >

    <EditTextPreference
        android:dialogMessage="@string/w_common_display_name_desc"
        android:key="display_name"
        android:summary="@string/w_common_display_name_desc"
        android:title="@string/w_common_display_name" />
    <EditTextPreference
        android:dialogMessage="@string/w_basic_username_desc"
        android:inputType="textVisiblePassword"
        android:key="username"
        android:summary="@string/w_basic_username_desc"
        android:title="@string/w_basic_username" />
    <EditTextPreference
        android:dialogMessage="@string/w_common_server_desc"
        android:inputType="textVisiblePassword"
        android:key="server"
        android:summary="@string/w_common_server_desc"
        android:title="@string/w_common_server" />

    <com.csipsimple.widgets.PasswordPreference
        android:dialogMessage="@string/w_basic_password_desc"
        android:key="password"
        android:password="true"
        android:summary="@string/w_basic_password_desc"
        android:title="@string/w_basic_password" />

</PreferenceScreen>

That is called by this PreferenceActivity .

I looked at a lot tutorials about PreferenceScreen and the xml looks fine. This is part of a project that used SherlockFragment before and I'm currently upgrading some parts of it's code. When I compile the app, the summary doesn't show up for some reason. The dialogMessage gets displayed just fine.

I already added this on my AndroidManifest .

implementation 'com.android.support:preference-v7:28.0.0'

I found out today that the ListView that is used by the code is not showing anything even in the layout editor. I tried replacing it with RecyclerView but it throws an error Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView cannot be cast to android.widget.ListView . I looked for anything like a findViewById but can't find any. I'd rather deal with the not showing anything error than that because I feel like it is more complex than the former.

Here's the xml used for displaying the PreferenceScreen .

I tried changing the Theme but it still doesn't show the text. I tried removing android:layoutAnimation and android:persistentDrawingCache but it still doesn't show the summary .

This is adptr_simple.xml because someone asked for it.

Answer 1

Guess these lines are at fault:

String keyid = R.string.class.getField(field_name + "_summary").get(null).toString();
return getString(Integer.parseInt(keyid));
