Michael,

Is "Drawing" your full package name? Sounds like it's not.

Unlike other places (e.g. the manifest), you need to use fully-qualified class names in layout files.

So if your application is defined in (for example) package named "org.MichaelAquilina.EZPaint", and your DrawingLayout in "org.MichaelAquilina.EZPaint.Drawing", then the XML needs to have this:

<org.MichaelAquilina.EZPaint.Drawing.DrawingLayout/>

Other than that, look at logcat output (either in Eclipse or "adb logcat" from the Windows/Linux/MacOS command line). After the app crashes, you should see the line that says "Caused by:" and then a stack trace for the exception.

Hi guys, im having a problem getting a custom view that i created on
the xml layout file.

i have a class named DrawingLayout which extends FrameLayout

it is found in the package Drawing

as stated on this page 
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/custom-components.html
i used the following decleration in xml

<Drawing.DrawingLayout ... />

but whenever i run the program with that decleration i get a runtime
exception error on SetContentView( ... )

is there something im not doing well? If you need any more details
please tell me because i cant seem to figure this one out.
