I have one list item in my preferences (and then some info/”buttons”). The “preferences view” (which is loaded from a service) is displayed correctly (and I can’t see anything strange in the log/output). But when I click on the item to change it, i get an empty dialog (only title and cancel button, no list items).
Any idea about what can be the problem?

You can see the content of my xml-files here: http://pastebin.com/m4c52c3a2 (titles etc in Swedish..)

I had to replace the Preferencea tag with org.kaloer.preferenceexample.Preferencea, and then made a class called Preferencea which just had:

public class Preferencea extends Preference {
public Preferencea(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}
}

and it worked fine.

You’re right, I just didn’t tell it as I thought the readers knew that But I’ll add it now.

^activity
android:name=”.Preferences”
android:label=”@string/set_preferences”^
^/activity^

NOTE: You will also want to define the string: set_preferences in res/values/strings.xml.

Good tutorial, thanx.

I got a NullPointerException on line 18 of Preferences.java because customPref is null, so I added:
if(customPref == null) {
customPref = new Preference(getBaseContext());
}

Also, I removed the “Preferencea” XML block, is it a typo or something to implement to oneself?

People might want to put the XML file in the layout directory. In that case, they would change R.xml.preferences to R.layout.preferences in the Java code.

And now it works for me
