Hi,
I am trying to load a layout I created in the designer using a class and trying to set values to object in that layout but having issues in doing it.
My Main Activity looks like this:
Main:
The Class looks like this:
MyClass:
My Layout file is called 'Demo' and that just has one label called 'label1'.
When I try to change the text after loading the layout it says 'Object should first be initialized (Label).'
However, I then tried to load the layout without using the class, and loaded it using the following code and it works fine:
Main:
Do I need to initialize the label even knowing I am calling it from a layout I created in the designer when I call it from a class ?
In my example I am trying to load the layout from a class and then change the text of the label from my activity.
