    <p>I have a gridView that displays some icons (in a Main Menu format) - Based on the Icon pressed I need to launch an activity. I am doing this using a switch statement.</p> <p>It works fine for two of my activities, however when I try to launch a third activity I get a StackOverFlow Error. </p> <p><strong>StackTrace:</strong></p> <pre><code>07-11 11:32:44.219: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18842): Uncaught handler: thread main exiting due to uncaught exception 07-11 11:32:44.219: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18842): java.lang.StackOverflowError 07-11 11:32:44.219: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18842): at android.app.Instrumentation.checkStartActivityResult(Instrumentation.java:1404) 07-11 11:32:44.219: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18842): at android.app.Instrumentation.execStartActivity(Instrumentation.java:1378) 07-11 11:32:44.219: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18842): at android.app.Activity.startActivityForResult(Activity.java:2749) 07-11 11:32:44.219: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18842): at com.***.NotesMainMenuActivity.startActivity(NotesMainMenuActivity.java:86) 07-11 11:32:44.219: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18842): at com.***.NotesMainMenuActivity$1.onItemClick(NotesMainMenuActivity.java:45) 07-11 11:32:44.219: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18842): at android.widget.AdapterView.performItemClick(AdapterView.java:284) 07-11 11:32:44.219: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18842): at android.widget.AbsListView$PerformClick.run(AbsListView.java:1640) 07-11 11:32:44.219: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18842): at android.os.Handler.handleCallback(Handler.java:587) 07-11 11:32:44.219: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18842): at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:92) 07-11 11:32:44.219: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18842): at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:123) 07-11 11:32:44.219: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18842): at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:4363) 07-11 11:32:44.219: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18842): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) 07-11 11:32:44.219: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18842): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:521) 07-11 11:32:44.219: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18842): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:860) 07-11 11:32:44.219: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18842): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:618) 07-11 11:32:44.219: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(18842): at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) </code></pre> <p>StackTrace indicates that the offending lines are: 86 and 45.</p> <p><strong>Line 45</strong></p> <p>Line 45 is part of the OnClickListener where I call a method to choose which activity to start: </p> <pre><code>private void setClickListenter() { grid.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() { @Override public void onItemClick(AdapterView&lt;?&gt; parent, View v, int position, long id) { startActivity(position); &lt;--- Line 45 } }); } </code></pre> <p><strong>Line 86</strong></p> <p>Line 86 is where I create an intent after to start the new Activity</p> <pre><code> Intent i; switch(position) { case ITEM_CLICK_NEWNOTE: i = new Intent(this, NoteEditActivity.class); startActivityForResult(i, ACTIVITY_CREATE); break; case ITEM_CLICK_VIEWNOTES: i = new Intent(this, NotesListActivity.class); startActivityForResult(i, VIEW_NOTES); break; case ITEM_CLICK_RECYCLED: Log.w("MainMenuAdapter", "Got into Recycled Switch"); i = new Intent(this, RecycledNotesListActivity.class); &lt;--- Line 86 startActivityForResult(i, RECYCLED_NOTES); break; } </code></pre> <p>The top two parts of the switch statement ITEM_CLICK_NEWNOTE and ITEM_CLICK_VIEWNOTES work correctly - The activity starts as expected. Only ITEM_CLICK_RECYCLED causes an error. Based on throwing some Log lines into the code into RecycledNotesListActivity.java I don't believe any of the code in that runs. It breaks before then. </p> <p>I'm confused because all three parts of the switch statement are the same, yet two work and one doesn't. </p> <p>What have I done wrong?</p>

    2. COI believe so - Before the Crash i can see the Log Message I added on Line 85. ITEM_CLICK_NEWNOTE, VIEWNOTES and RECYCLED are just 0,1,2 its the position value of the item in GridView that was clicked.

    3. COOk.... stack overflow errors generally mean infinite recursion, but I can't see any of that with just the snippets you posted.

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).
