Hello, I am new to android programming...so please be patient..

I am trying to load a custom  view (TracciaView) into an activity
(Activitygps), where my custom view in defined as a subclass of an
activty class. I created the following xml layout file for the
activity containing the custom view:

----
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<view xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";

 class="com.example.android.prova.Activitygps$TracciaView"
            android:id="@+id/TracciaV"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="fill_parent"
/>
----
this is the subclass TracciaView:

 public static class TracciaView extends View {

                 private ShapeDrawable mDrawable;

                 public TracciaView(Context context) {
                    super(context);

                    int x = 10;
                    int y = 10;
                    int width = 300;
                    int height = 200;

                    mDrawable = new ShapeDrawable(new OvalShape());
                    mDrawable.getPaint().setColor(0xff74AC23);
                    mDrawable.setBounds(x, y, x + width, y + height);


                 }
                 @Override protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {

                             mDrawable.draw(canvas);
                             super.onDraw(canvas);
                    }

         }


What happens is I am keeping on getting runtime error (the app dies),
looking in the LogCat I get:
