Android: setcontentview lead to runtimeexception

Question

I have a main activity (for sign up and log in) that has a button labeled (forget password) to open a new Forget password activity, while debugging I discovered that:

setContentView(R.layout.forgetpassword);

throws runtimeexception

What is wrong ?

ForgetParsePassword.java

     package com.parse.starter;
     import com.parse.ParseException;
     import com.parse.ParseUser;
     import com.parse.RequestPasswordResetCallback;

     import android.app.Activity;
     import android.os.Bundle;
     import android.text.TextUtils;
     import android.view.View;
     import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
     import android.widget.Button;
     import android.widget.EditText;
     import android.widget.Toast;

public class ForgetParsePassword extends Activity{
EditText et_forgetpassword = null;
Button btn_submitforgetpassword = null;
String password = null;


@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.forgetpassword);

    et_forgetpassword = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.et_forget);
    btn_submitforgetpassword = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btn_submitforgetpassword);

    btn_submitforgetpassword.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub

            password = et_forgetpassword.getText().toString();
            checkEmailID();


        }
    });

}

protected void checkEmailID() {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    if (TextUtils.isEmpty(password)) {
        et_forgetpassword.setError(getString(R.string.error_field_required));
    } else if (!password.contains("@")) {
        et_forgetpassword.setError(getString(R.string.error_invalid_email));
    }
    else
        forgotPassword(password);
}

public void forgotPassword(String email) {
    //postEvent(new UserForgotPasswordStartEvent());
    ParseUser.requestPasswordResetInBackground(email, new UserForgotPasswordCallback());
}

private class UserForgotPasswordCallback extends RequestPasswordResetCallback{
    public UserForgotPasswordCallback(){
        super();
    }

    @Override
    public void done(ParseException e) {
        if (e == null) {
            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Successfully sent link to your email for reset Password", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        } else {
            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Failed to sent link to your email for reset Password", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

        }
    }       
}

}

Answer 1

You have an error in your layout. This line is incorrect.

   android:inputType="@string/textemail" >

Please see the documentation, here:
