Preference cannot cast java.lang.boolean to String

Question

I have the following Preference class:

public class AppPreferencesActivity extends PreferenceActivity {
    private SharedPreferences appPrefs;
    private S         


        

Answer 1

I was getting this error too, and couldn't figure out why. I think it's because I added a new preference and tried running the app again. I uninstalled the app, then ran it again with the new preferences, and it worked. Maybe it needed a full wipe to reset the sharedpreferences file.
