ConstraintLayout cannot be cast to android.widget.TextView

Question

I keep getting a runtime error when I try to launch an activity.

Line where the error happen:

private OnItemClickListener mDeviceClickListener = new OnIt         


        

Answer 1

From the documentation:

View: The view within the AdapterView that was clicked (this will be a view provided by the adapter)

In your case the View is the root ConstraintLayout. And as the error says you can't cast it to TextView. To get the info you can use:

String info = v.findViewById(R.id.textView).getText().toString()
