ListView Help: Resource Not Found

Hi people.

I am working on a project an am currently blocked. I created an arraylist with the info I want displayed in the listview. I used an array adapter and put that in the setListAdapter. All this is done by the book.

However, when I run it, it goes through the whole program and then gives me an error that it can't find the list_item.xml resource. I check the path that it gave an it is there. I tried cleaning the project and restarting the computer but nothing works.

Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can fix this? I'd really appreciate the help.

Additional Info: I have been doing tests and it I learned that the program messes up when I use setListAdapter(value).

fyi: The variable value is what i get from the array adapter.

Hope this info is useful. I really need some help to solve this. I honestly don't know what to try next.

 

Code (Text):

1. public class waFinalActivity extends ListActivity {
2.     static ArrayList<String> stations=new ArrayList<String>();
3.     /** Called when the activity is first created. */
4.     @Override

11.         System.out.println("test1");
12.         setListAdapter(value);
13.         System.out.println("test2");
14.         ListView lv=getListView();
15.         lv.setAdapter(value);//<------------ gets stuck here
16.         lv.setTextFilterEnabled(true);
17.         System.out.println("test3: setting");
18.     }
19.    
20.     /*protected void onListItemClick(ListView lv, View v,int position, long id){

72.                 e.printStackTrace();
73.             }
74.         }
75.     }
76.  
77.     /*****************************************************************************************/
78.     private String getTagValue(String sTag, Element eElement) {
79.         NodeList nlList = eElement.getElementsByTagName(sTag).item(0).getChildNodes();
80.         Node nValue = (Node) nlList.item(0);
81.         return nValue.getNodeValue();
82.     }
83. }

 

it extends listactivity so setContextView() doesn't have to be called.
It shouldn't effect the result event if it is there, but I tried putting it and it gave me an error.
