    <p>I am still pretty new to this and I am working on my first app. The problem I am having is this.</p> <p>I have a splash screen that is working fine, but I keep getting an error when it goes to switch to a new activity. I know the problem is in the intent, but I don't know what it is or how to fix it. My code is:</p> <pre><code> splashTread = new Thread() { @Override public void run() { try { synchronized(this){ //wait 5 sec wait(_splashTime); } } catch(InterruptedException e) {} finally { finish(); //start a new activity Intent intent = new Intent(MAIN.this, Home.class); startActivity(intent); stop(); </code></pre> <p>and the cat log is:</p> <pre><code>02-12 13:01:46.009: D/AndroidRuntime(753): Shutting down VM 02-12 13:01:46.009: W/dalvikvm(753): threadid=1: thread exiting with uncaught exception (group=0x4001e560) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): FATAL EXCEPTION: main 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.madonk.LAFEST/com.madonk.LAFEST.Home}: java.lang.ClassCastException: android.widget.LinearLayout 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:1702) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): at android.app.ActivityThread.handleLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:1722) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): at android.app.ActivityThread.access$1500(ActivityThread.java:124) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): at android.app.ActivityThread$H.handleMessage(ActivityThread.java:974) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:99) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:130) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:3821) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:507) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:839) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:597) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: android.widget.LinearLayout 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): at android.app.ListActivity.onContentChanged(ListActivity.java:241) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): at com.android.internal.policy.impl.PhoneWindow.setContentView(PhoneWindow.java:256) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): at android.app.Activity.setContentView(Activity.java:1716) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): at com.madonk.LAFEST.Home.onCreate(Home.java:11) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): at android.app.Instrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(Instrumentation.java:1047) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:1666) 02-12 13:01:46.049: E/AndroidRuntime(753): ... 11 more </code></pre> <p>Home Activity</p> <pre><code>package com.madonk.LAFEST; import android.app.ListActivity; import android.os.Bundle; public class Home extends ListActivity { /** Called when the activity is first created. */ @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.home); } } </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.

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).
