Unable to resolve inflate(int)

Question

So I am trying to inflate a layout in my activity but I keep getting this error "Cannot resolve method inflate(int)"

  LayoutInflater layoutInflater = (LayoutInflater)this.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
  View error = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.error_internet_connection);

What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

there is no method inflate(int). The methods available are inflate(int, ViewGroup) and inflate(int, ViewGroup, boolean).

Change

  View error = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.error_internet_connection);

to

 View error = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.error_internet_connection, null);

Here you can find the documentation
