I've been trying to create a Pager for my application that runs on <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="10" android:targetSdkVersion="15" />
I wrote my code according to this blog post.
XML for Pager activity:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="@+id/instructionsViewPager"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</LinearLayout>
Code for adapter:
public class MyPagerAdapter extends PagerAdapter {
@Override
public int getCount() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return 2;
}
@Override
public boolean isViewFromObject(View arg0, Object arg1) {
return (arg0 == ((View) arg1));
}
@Override
public void destroyItem(ViewGroup container, int position, Object object) {
((ViewPager) container).removeView((View) object);
}
@Override
public Object instantiateItem(ViewGroup container, int position) {
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) container.getContext()
.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
int resId = 0;
switch (position) {
case 1:
resId = R.layout.instructions_page1;
break;
case 2:
resId = R.layout.instructions_page2;
break;
}
View view = inflater.inflate(resId, null);
((ViewPager) container).addView(view, 0);
return view;
}
}
Code for activity
public class Instructions extends Activity {
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.instructions);
MyPagerAdapter adapter = new MyPagerAdapter();
ViewPager pager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.instructionsViewPager);
pager.setAdapter(adapter);
pager.setCurrentItem(0);
}
}
for some reason, when I run this app, I get this following error list:

so, I know it's failing because I'm using the android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
, I tried playing with that and changing to plain ViewPager
and importing android.support.v13
but it didn't help...
any thoughts on how to fix this?
Make sure that you place your libraries in a common folder such as libs in your project.
Right click on the jar, then select Build Path and click on Add to Build Path.
That will add your library to your project. If everything is correct, you can see it in a generated "folder" in the project called "Referenced Libraries"
