Android: crash on 3.0 app thats supposed to be backward compatible

this is a follow-up question to my question earlier this day.

I have installed the compatibility pack and restarted Eclipse. Then I created an activity like this, using Blundell's code:

public class EntryActivitiy extends Activity
{
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.about);

        int b = Integer.parseInt(Build.VERSION.SDK);
        if (b >= Build.VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB)
        {
            Log.i(getString(R.string.app_name), "Found A Tablet Running Honeycomb or newer");
            //nothing else in here yet
        }
        else
        {
            this.startActivity(new Intent(this, Main.class));
        }
    }

}

My Manifest contains:

 <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="8" 
        android:targetSdkVersion="11"/>

    <supports-screens android:smallScreens="false"
        android:normalScreens="true"
        android:largeScreens="true"
        android:xlargeScreens="true"/>

as well as

    <activity android:name="EntryActivity"
        android:label="@string/app_name" 
        android:noHistory="true">           

        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>

  开发者_开发问答  </activity>

In the project settings, I have set the build target to 3.0 as otherwise I'll get an "HONEYCOMB cannot be resolved or is not a field" error.

Now, if I run it on my 2.2 AVD, the app crashes like this:

If tried it on my 2.3 phone but got some weird screen flickering and "HDMI disconnected" and other very strange messages in the LogCat. I don't want to repeat it, though, so I can't provide the exact messages.

What am I doing wrong?

Kind regards, jellyfish

Edit:

I swapped back to my old main activity and it worked fine. Also, I commented all the HC-related code out and it still would crash. I also tried to set another Activity as main and that also worked. :/

EDIT

Your activity class is actually Misspelt!

Change it in your manifest or change your class name:

 public class EntryActivitiy extends // here spellcheck

Original Answer

You need a period before the class name of your activity in your manifest:

 <activity android:name=".EntryActivity"
    android:label="@string/app_name" 
    android:noHistory="true">  

Do a Project > Clean and it should Auto rebuild after this

You then need to check your manifest to ensure your package is correct:

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  package="com.something.something"
 ....

I would also uninstall off the emulator after this, just to be safe , Emulator > Settings > Applications > Standard Uninstall

What's the package of EntryActivity? Is it in myPackage?

You need to place a period before the class name of your activity in the manifest:

 <activity android:name=".EntryActivity"
