Extending Android.app.application manifest problem_问答_开发者

I get a classnotfoundexception when I try to get my custom application class. My package structure:

be.test.helloworld.data.DataClass (extends Application ->not found)
be.test.helloworld.activities.MapGetLocationActivity (Activity -> works)

I think the problem is in my manifest:

<!-- doesn't work -->
<application android:name=".data.DataClass" android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/app_name" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen"> 
<!-- this works -->
<activity android:label="@string/map" android:name=".activities.MapGetLocationActivity"></activity>

It used to work without android:name in application tag. But now when I try to create a custom application object it doesnt't work.

Is it a problem with my manifest? Or can anyone tell me the problem?

My custom application class is almost identical to top answer here(How to declare global variables in Android?)

try deleting all generated files and rebuilding. i had this sort of error a few times, and that usually helped.

Had this sort of problem today after upgrading to latest ADT/SDK. Took me quite a while. Checked that i used google-apis (for maps), uses-library, cleaned the project etc.

Deleted the .project and added a fresh one (create new android project) finally solved it.
