    <p>I have an app which loads a listview when opened, however I am getting an Array Index Out Of Bounds Exception, with no clues as to where the problem lies. It is trying to access index=-1 somewhere, but I have no idea where.</p> <p>The app loads Homework information from a database, puts them into separate Homework objects in an ArrayList and loads it into the ListView from there. I really don't know where the exception is coming from, I have checked all my code. There is only 1 homework in the list, however the app refuses to open and force closes as soon as I try to open it. Here is the LogCat output</p> <p>Thanks</p> <p>LogCat output</p> <pre><code>01-11 16:38:43.644: E/AndroidRuntime(7267): FATAL EXCEPTION: main 01-11 16:38:43.644: E/AndroidRuntime(7267):

<p>EDIT: Also, the ListView works when I first add a Homework within the app, and it goes and refreshes the ListView and adds the Homework to it. I am totally reloading the main Activity when this happens, so it appears to be a problem opening it after the app has been closed once.</p> <p>EDIT 2: I deleted the data from the app, added a new Homework and now I cannot recreate the problem.. What could have caused this?!</p> <p>EDIT 3: PROBLEM DETECTED. It is to do with some of the text. I have worked out that when I set the 'title' to "Binomial Expansion" it recreated the error that I had before when the homework was also called "Binomial Expansion". Could it be to do with trying to put that String in the TextView and the text being too large? </p> <p>I have extended the width of the TextView and it stopped the error. When I extended the text I got the issue again. It must be a problem with the text view overflowing. Are there any TextView properties I can set to stop this?</p>

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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
