I have a custom dialog which contains an EditText control in it. If I type something inside it, do a long press, and choose to add the word to the dictionary, it crashes with this exception:

I know I can remove that option if I set the inputType to "textEmailAddress", but in my case, I must set inputType to "textPersonName" --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
