Why do I always (FrameLayout) findViewById always returns null? The file exists. Working with Google Maps. I read the related topics. Powered by: Project-Clean. Delete folder gen.
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.travel_map_activity);
mapView = (MapView) findViewById(R.id.travelMapView);
FrameLayout mainLayout = (FrameLayout) findViewById(R.id.mapFrame);//null
}
What's the problem?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/mapFrame"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
<TextView
android:id="@+id/tvTop"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="20dip"
android:background="#FFFFFF"
android:gravity="top|center_horizontal"
android:text="FLOATING VIEW - TOP"
android:textColor="#000000"
android:textStyle="bold" />
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ListView
android:id="@+id/lvMain"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout></FrameLayout>
travel_map_activity.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"

<com.google.android.maps.MapView
android:id="@+id/travelMapView"

android:apiKey="key" />
</LinearLayout>
thanks
Are those two Views you are finding ( travelMapView
and mapFrame
) in the same layout travel_map_activity
. Because the layout you provided isn't holding travelMapView
at all, yet you don't get a NullPointerException
there.
EDIT : As you show right now, mapFrame
is not in the same view, so there is no way to get to that...
Well , there is one, but it won't be useful, as setContentView
only shows up one single layout at a time. Anyway, you could still access mapFrame
with an inflated layout, without it being actually used (and that's because it is completely useless ):
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) context.getSystemService( Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE );
View view = inflater.inflate( R.layout.your_other_layout_with_framelayout, null );
FrameLayout mainLayout = (FrameLayout) view.findViewById(R.id.mapFrame);
Using this will let you escape from that null, but again , there's no chance you can use that FrameLayout if it isn't in your current view.
You're inflating the layout from travel_map_activity.xml
, which only contains one ID: R.id.travelMapView
. You cannot select items from other layouts ( with a few small exceptions that are more like abuses of the system ).
You either need to set the content view to whichever layout it is that contains R.id.mapFrame
, or you need to find another way to pass that data in (probably using a Bundle
packaged with the Intent
with .putExtra()
and .getIntExtra()
, for example; there are other questions and blogs that cover this kind of thing).
