I'm developing an Android app which reads data from MySQL database and I faced this error. I have this XML layout:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> 
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" 
android:layout_width="match_parent" 
android:layout_height="match_parent" 
android:orientation="vertical" > 


        <TextView android:id="@+id/wardNumber" 
            android:layout_width="wrap_content" 
            android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
            android:layout_marginLeft="3dp" 
            android:text="Ward Number" 
            android:textSize="22dp"/> 


        <TextView android:id="@+id/dateTime" 
            android:layout_width="wrap_content" 
            android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
            android:layout_below="@id/wardNumber" 
            android:layout_alignParentRight="true" 
            android:layout_marginRight="3dp" 
            android:text="Date-Time" />

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/name"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_alignBaseline="@+id/dateTime"
            android:layout_alignBottom="@+id/dateTime"
            android:layout_alignLeft="@+id/wardNumber"
            android:layout_marginLeft="3dp" 
            android:text="Name" />

</RelativeLayout> 

And this is the my Java file:

public ApplicationAdapter(Context context, List<Application> items) {
    super(context, R.layout.app_custom_list, items);
    this.items = items;
}

@Override
public int getCount() {
    return items.size();
}

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
    View v = convertView;

    if(v == null) {
        LayoutInflater li = LayoutInflater.from(getContext());
        v = li.inflate(R.layout.app_custom_list, null);            
    }

    Application app = items.get(position);

    if(app != null) {
      //  ImageView icon = (ImageView)v.findViewById(R.id.appIcon);
        TextView wardNumber = (TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.wardNumber);
        TextView name = (TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.name);
      //  LinearLayout ratingCntr = (LinearLayout)v.findViewById(R.id.ratingCntr);
        TextView dateTime = (TextView)v.findViewById(R.id.dateTime);

  //      if(icon != null) {
  //          Resources res = getContext().getResources();
   //         String sIcon = "com.sj.jsondemo:drawable/" + app.getIcon();
   //         icon.setImageDrawable(res.getDrawable(res.getIdentifier(sIcon, null, null)));
   //     }

        if(wardNumber != null) wardNumber.setText(app.getTitle());

        if(name != null) name.setText(app.getTitle());

        if(dateTime != null) {
            dateTime.setText(app.getTotalDl());
          //  NumberFormat nf = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance();
          //  dateTime.setText(nf.format(app.getTotalDl())+" dl");            
        }


    }

    return v;
}
}

When this Activity is called, I receive this error message:

I don't know how to fix this error.

Change

dateTime.setText(app.getTotalDl());

To

dateTime.setText(String.valueOf(app.getTotalDl()));

There are different versions of setText - one takes a String and one takes an int resource id. If you pass it an integer it will try to look for the corresponding string resource id - which it can't find, which is your error.

I guess app.getTotalDl() returns an int. You need to specifically tell setText to set it to the String value of this int.

setText (int resid) vs setText (CharSequence text)
