    </LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>

Anyone knows what is going on? I did everything just like the tutorial.

Answer 1

The error is pointing to line #37 in your xml file, with the button that you have given an ID of " btnSignUp ":

Error inflating class info.hoang8f.widget.FButton

Did you include this dependency in your gradle.build file?

dependencies {
    compile 'info.hoang8f:fbutton:1.0.5'
}

Also, make sure that you copied the FButton.java class from Github into your project. Finally, make sure that you've set the colors in your values folder.

Answer 2

Try to remove the buttonColor property in FButton because the real error is

Caused by: java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Can't convert value at index 1 to color: type=0x5
        at android.content.res.TypedArray.getColor(TypedArray.java:463)
        at info.hoang8f.widget.FButton.parseAttrs(FButton.java:116)
        at info.hoang8f.widget.FButton.<init>(FButton.java:52)

Answer 3

The error is from this code:

mButtonColor = typedArray.getColor(attr, R.color.fbutton_default_color);

and the error is:

java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Can't convert value at index 1 to color: type=0x5

So you should make sure that your color is correct. Maybe you didn't put # in the color ...
