    <p>I am modifying someone else's code, and just trying to add a fourth checkbox to the following dialog:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:orientation="vertical"&gt; &lt;CheckBox android:layout_marginLeft="20dp" android:layout_marginRight="20dp" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:text="@string/vinai_full" android:checked="true" android:id="@+id/cb_vinai" android:layout_height="wrap_content"/&gt; &lt;CheckBox android:layout_marginLeft="20dp" android:layout_marginRight="20dp" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:text="@string/suttan_full" android:checked="true" android:id="@+id/cb_suttan" android:layout_height="wrap_content"/&gt; &lt;CheckBox android:layout_marginLeft="20dp" android:layout_marginRight="20dp" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:text="@string/abhidum_full" android:checked="true" android:id="@+id/cb_abhidham" android:layout_height="wrap_content"/&gt; &lt;Button android:text="@string/ok" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:id="@+id/okcatebtn" android:layout_marginTop="20dp" android:layout_marginBottom="10dp" android:layout_gravity="center" /&gt; &lt;/LinearLayout&gt; </code></pre> <p>The fourth checkbox is:</p> <pre><code>&lt;CheckBox android:layout_marginLeft="20dp" android:layout_marginRight="20dp" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:text="@string/etc_full" android:checked="true" android:id="@+id/cb_etc" android:layout_height="wrap_content"/&gt; </code></pre> <p>When I add it in, the apk compiles fine, but the program crashes on startup:</p> <pre><code>E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): FATAL EXCEPTION: main E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{org.yuttadhammo.tipitaka/org.yuttadhammo.tipitaka.SelectBookActivity}: java.lang.ClassCastException: android.widget.Gallery E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:1647) E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): at android.app.ActivityThread.handleLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:1663) E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): at android.app.ActivityThread.access$1500(ActivityThread.java:117) E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): at android.app.ActivityThread$H.handleMessage(ActivityThread.java:931) E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:99) E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:123) E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:3683) E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:507) E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:839) E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:597) E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: android.widget.Gallery E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): at org.yuttadhammo.tipitaka.SelectBookActivity.onCreate(SelectBookActivity.java:586) E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): at android.app.Instrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(Instrumentation.java:1047) E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:1611) E/AndroidRuntime( 1470): ... 11 more </code></pre> <p>This is even though the dialog is not loaded at startup. If I replace the third checkbox with the fourth one, there is no crash, so it seems like for some reason it is simply not accepting a fourth element. Why would that be?</p> <p><em>EDIT: Here's the code leading up to the error, but I don't understand how it is related, since it refers to an element in a differing layout file:</em></p> <pre><code>@Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); main = View.inflate(this, R.layout.main, null); setContentView(main); searchHistoryDBAdapter = new SearchHistoryDBAdapter(SelectBookActivity.this); searchResultsDBAdapter = new SearchResultsDBAdapter(SelectBookActivity.this); bookmarkDBAdapter = new BookmarkDBAdapter(SelectBookActivity.this); Context context = getApplicationContext(); prefs = PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(context); MainTipitakaDBAdapter mainTipitakaDBAdapter = new MainTipitakaDBAdapter(this); try { mainTipitakaDBAdapter.open(); if(mainTipitakaDBAdapter.isOpened()) { mainTipitakaDBAdapter.close(); } else { startDownloader(); } } catch (SQLiteException e) { Log.e ("Tipitaka","error:", e); startDownloader(); } Resources res = getResources(); final String [] cnames = res.getStringArray(R.array.category); textInfo = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.text_info); </code></pre> <p>and here's main.xml:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:id="@+id/ScrollView01" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:scrollbars="horizontal|vertical"&gt; &lt;LinearLayout android:id="@+id/LinearLayout01" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:orientation="vertical"&gt; &lt;RelativeLayout android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginTop="10dp" android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" android:padding="3dp" android:id="@+id/about_header"&gt; &lt;TextView android:id="@+id/about_text_1" android:layout_marginLeft="1dp" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_toRightOf="@id/about_logo" android:layout_centerVertical="true" android:text="Android Tipitaka" android:textSize="24sp" android:textColor="@android:color/primary_text_dark_nodisable"/&gt; &lt;/RelativeLayout&gt; &lt;View android:background="@drawable/black_white_gradient" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_marginTop="10dp" android:layout_marginBottom="5dp" android:layout_height="2dp"/&gt; &lt;Gallery android:layout_width="match_parent" android:id="@+id/gallery_cate" android:spacing="6dp" android:gravity="center_vertical" android:layout_height="60dp"/&gt; &lt;TextView android:id="@+id/book_label" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" android:text="@string/th_book_label" android:textSize="17sp" /&gt; &lt;Gallery android:id="@+id/gallery_ncate" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="60dp" android:gravity="center_vertical" android:spacing="25dp" /&gt; &lt;TextView android:id="@+id/text_info" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:lines="2" android:layout_marginBottom="5dp" android:layout_gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal|center" android:gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal" android:text="" android:textSize="17sp" /&gt; &lt;RelativeLayout android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:id="@+id/main_buttons" android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"&gt; &lt;Button android:id="@+id/read_btn" android:layout_width="85dp" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal" android:layout_gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal|center" android:text="@string/th_read" android:textStyle="bold" android:textSize="16dp" android:layout_marginRight="40dp" /&gt; &lt;Button android:id="@+id/search_btn" android:text="@string/th_search" android:layout_toRightOf="@id/read_btn" android:layout_width="85dp" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal" android:layout_gravity="center_vertical|center_horizontal|center" android:textStyle="bold" android:textSize="16dp" /&gt; &lt;/RelativeLayout&gt; &lt;/LinearLayout&gt; &lt;/ScrollView&gt; </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
