4,207 PointsAndroid Multiple Buttons
While building a simple Android app that has two button in MainActivity. Both button should open a separate activity. However, only one button is working while the other makes the app crash. What am I doing wrong?
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Button btnContact_1 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnContact_1);
btnContact_1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
startActivity(new Intent(MainActivity.this, JohnRodContactInfo.class));
}
});
Button btnContact_2 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.btnContact_2);
btnContact_2.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
startActivity(new Intent(MainActivity.this, JaneRodContactInfo.class));
}
});
}
}
btnContact_2 is not working... please help
