Unfortunately, (app name) has stopped. [android in eclipse with AVD]

414 views Asked by At

I have been trying to build a program to capture photo(s) using this code:

package com.example.capturephoto;

import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;
import java.io.File;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.graphics.Bitmap;
import android.graphics.BitmapFactory;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.os.Environment;
import android.provider.MediaStore;
import android.util.Log;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {

    protected Button _button;
    protected ImageView _image;
    protected TextView _field;
    protected String _path;
    protected boolean _taken;

    protected static final String PHOTO_TAKEN   = "photo_taken";

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 
    {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        _image = ( ImageView ) findViewById( R.id.image );
        _field = ( TextView ) findViewById( R.id.field );
        _button = ( Button ) findViewById( R.id.button );
        _button.setOnClickListener( new ButtonClickHandler() );

        _path = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/images/make_machine_example.jpg";
    }

    public class ButtonClickHandler implements View.OnClickListener 
    {
        public void onClick( View view ){
            Log.i("MakeMachine", "ButtonClickHandler.onClick()" );
            startCameraActivity();
        }
    }

    protected void startCameraActivity()
    {
        Log.i("MakeMachine", "startCameraActivity()" );
        File file = new File( _path );
        Uri outputFileUri = Uri.fromFile( file );

        Intent intent = new Intent(android.provider.MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE );
        intent.putExtra( MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, outputFileUri );

        startActivityForResult( intent, 0 );
    }

    @Override
    protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) 
    {   
        Log.i( "MakeMachine", "resultCode: " + resultCode );
        switch( resultCode )
        {
            case 0:
                Log.i( "MakeMachine", "User cancelled" );
                break;

            case -1:
                onPhotoTaken();
                break;
        }
    }

    protected void onPhotoTaken()
    {
        Log.i( "MakeMachine", "onPhotoTaken" );

        _taken = true;

        BitmapFactory.Options options = new BitmapFactory.Options();
        options.inSampleSize = 4;

        Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeFile( _path, options );

        _image.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
        _field.setVisibility( View.GONE );
    }

    @Override 
    protected void onRestoreInstanceState( Bundle savedInstanceState){
        Log.i( "MakeMachine", "onRestoreInstanceState()");
        if( savedInstanceState.getBoolean( MainActivity.PHOTO_TAKEN ) ) {
            onPhotoTaken();
        }
    }

    @Override
    protected void onSaveInstanceState( Bundle outState ) {
        outState.putBoolean( MainActivity.PHOTO_TAKEN, _taken );
    }
}

When I run the program using AVD in eclipse juno, it shows me: "Unfortunately, (app) has stopped"

I didn't find any error in the program. How can I fix this?

This is my log cat output:

And this is my XML:

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

    android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"

    android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    tools:context="com.example.capturephoto.MainActivity" >

    <RelativeLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_weight="6"
                    android:gravity="center_horizontal|center_vertical">

        <TextView android:id="@+id/field"
                  android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                  android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                  android:text="No Image"
                  android:gravity="center_horizontal"/>

        <ImageView android:id="@+id/image"
                   android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                   android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

    </RelativeLayout>

    <Button android:id="@+id/button"

            android:text="Take Photo"
            android:layout_weight="1"/>

</RelativeLayout>

This is my Android manifest:

Read the error logs carefully!

Binary XML file line #1: You must supply a layout_width attribute.

The root RelativeLayout in your XML does not have layout_width nor layout_height parameters.

Replace your main activity xml file with this.

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
tools:context="com.example.capturephoto.MainActivity" >

<RelativeLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:layout_weight="6"
                android:gravity="center_horizontal|center_vertical">

    <TextView android:id="@+id/field"
              android:layout_width="fill_parent"
              android:layout_height="wrap_content"
              android:text="No Image"
              android:gravity="center_horizontal"/>

    <ImageView android:id="@+id/image"
               android:layout_width="fill_parent"
               android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

</RelativeLayout>

<Button android:id="@+id/button"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="Take Photo"
        android:layout_weight="1"/>

</RelativeLayout>

You haven't added layout_height and layout_width attributes in your parent RelativeLayout.

You missed to give the height and width of your Parent Layout

android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent"

 <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
         android:layout_width="match_parent"
         android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
        android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
        android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
        android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
        tools:context="com.example.capturephoto.MainActivity" >


</RelativeLayout>
