Android's ToggleButton setChecked(…) method not changing status of button

Question

I have a togglebutton which is not responding to my setChecked(...) method. Here is the code:

mBool = mPrefs.getBoolean(\"buttondefault\", true);
Boolean b =         


        

Answer 1

Because the button's setChecked() method accepts a primitive boolean as parameter. you're supplying a Boolean (wrapper class) variable. Normally that should be fine, however it doesn't work on this specific method, so you might need to manually unbox the variable or change the type of mBool to boolean
