Simple application crashes

[luigifonti]

Why, in this very simple example, the last statement (setBackgroundColor)

produces a crash of the application ?

 

public class Macumba extends Activity

{

@Override

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)

{

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

setContentView(R.layout.main);

ImageView vista = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.vista);

vista.setBackgroundColor(Color.YELLOW);

}

}

 

main.xml is very simple, too:

 

android:id="@+id/widget0"

android:layout_width="fill_parent"

android:layout_height="fill_parent"

xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

>

android:id="@+id/vista"

android:layout_width="300px"

android:layout_height="330px"

android:layout_x="9px"

android:layout_y="8px"

/>

vista.setBackgroundColor(Color.YELLOW);

 

I'm not very experienced in Android app development, but I believe setBackgroundColor expects an int value.

Otherwise,

If you want to use "Color.YELLOW" You may have to write it as

vista.setBackgroundColor(Color.rgb(0x255, 0x255, 0x00));
