Your existing code? Probably not. Most likely, you are not blowing up when you execute that statement -- you are blowing up when the class is being loaded, because it tries to resolve that field and fails. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android Development Wiki: http://wiki.andmob.org -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
