Unable to start activity, setOnClickListener

Question

Can't start new activity. Got problem in onClickListener.

I post a code an errors. Have not any idea why I got error in this line.

I think it can be not initialized variable Button b, but it's initialized!

Help, plz.

Code:

public class newItem extends Activity {
    private EditText Quantity;
    private EditText Weight;
    private EditText Price;
    private EditText Title;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.new_list);
        this.getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,
                WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);

        Button b = (Button) findViewById(R.id.ok_but);
        Quantity = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.Quantity);
        Weight = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.Weight);
        Price = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.Price);
        Title = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.Title);

        b.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                Intent i = new Intent();
                i.putExtra("Quantity", Quantity.getText().toString());
                i.putExtra("Weight", Weight.getText().toString());
                i.putExtra("Price", Price.getText().toString());
                i.putExtra("Title", Title.getText().toString());
                setResult(RESULT_OK, i);
                Log.i("palval", "setResult(RESULT_OK, i); newItem");
                finish();
            }
        });
    }
}

        android:label="@string/title_activity_main"
        android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysVisible" >
    </activity>

Err here:

b.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

Answer 1

Try to use

implements View.OnClickListener

or try to use Listener as anonymous class and then tell me if it works.

Note: class names should start with uppercase and you should respect it.

Update:

So problem is elsewhere, make sure that your ID is correct! and belongs to Button.

Answer 2

You can try like this:

     Button b= (Button) findViewById(R.id.but_Ok);
     b.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(View v)
             {
                     Intent i = new Intent(FromYourActivity.this,NextActivity.class);
                     startActivity(i);
                     finish();
                    ...
             }
       });

Also make sure you have the right Button definition in your XML file

     <Button 
     android:layout_height="wrap_content"
     android:id="@+id/but_Ok" 
     android:text="Your Button Text"
     android:layout_width="fill_parent"
     />

Answer 3

You need to set up the button variable above the onCreate(Bundle) I have also changed the way the onclick activity is set try this

public class newItem extends Activity {

private EditText Quantity;
Button b;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.new_list);
    Button b = (Button) findViewById(R.id.but_Ok);
    b.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

    public void onClick(View v) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    Intent i = new Intent();
    ...
    setResult(RESULT_OK, i);
    finish();
    }
});


    }
}
