I'm trying to define my own View subclass.public class myView extends View { myView(Context context) { View(context); } } Eclipse flags the first line of my constructor with an error "Implicit super conctructor View() is undefined. Must explicitly invoke another constructor" and the second line is flagged with the error "The method View(Context context) is undefined for the type myView." What does all this mean? The android documentation shows the constructor View(Context context) as public. Why can't I use it?
There are several reasons why View() is not available and will never be available.
It means you don't understand class instantiation and the life cycle of a class. This is not an Android issue at all and I suggest that you spend some time learning Java fundamentals. These folks are generally pretty helpful with that http://www.javaranch.com/
