copied!<p>I am new t android development and are having some issues with a Hang-Man game.</p> <p>This is how i Want it to work: 1. when the app starts the db is opened (db.open()) and a randomed word is fetched from the db (db.random()) and put in generatedWord String. The generatedWord is then made into the Spannablestring text (SpannableString text = new SpannableString(generatedWord);) and the whole text is made into color white/invisible.</p> <ol> <li><p>when a user enters a char into the textview userInput I want to save it to lastInput vairable by using onKeyListener: lastInput = (char)event.getUnicodeChar();</p></li> <li><p>and then when Enter button is hit the guess() should be called which sends lastInput s an argument. there it checks if lastInput is in indexOf generatedWord and if it is it will make the text of the chars black and visible again and if not it should call showImages() which in turn makes images visible.</p></li> </ol> <p>THING IS! The db is working, I just got the app going with the gui and everything, then I made some small change and now I cant launch the app again and only get FATAL ERRORS. What have I done wrong and what can i think about?</p> <p>Many thanks</p> <p>// MAINACTIVITY</p> <pre><code> package com.emanuelolsson.simplehangman; import database.DBAdapter; import android.app.Activity;
