NoSuchFieldError on findViewById()
I had the same error and it turns out that the resource was overridden.
If you have one project working as a library that declares some id in a given XML file,then your main project redefines that XML, the original id is gone, but you won't see the error until run time.
In my case, a partner deleted and committed the XML from the project, then added it back in the library project. Subclipse didn't seems to notice that because I was up to date, but the XML was there on the main project.
Well, I am Chinese. My English is not good.
I got the question too.
The solution may be:The name of xml file is repeated, eg：a.xml is in your library project, at the same time, a.xml is in your main project. so, please change one of the xml name.
To elaborate on @Moxor's solution, you can either:
- Decalare a dummy layout xml, and assign the missing ids to some dummy Views.
- Declare the missing ids as resources, the same way you declare a string resource: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/more-resources.html#Id
