Description

In an alloy view, setting touchEnabled='false' on any view type (view, label, etc) will throw [ERROR] : TiApplication: (main) [98,98] Sending event: exception on thread: main msg:java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.gstreetmedia.threetwotest/org.appcelerator.titanium.TiActivity}: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to java.lang.Boolean; Titanium 3.2.0,2013/12/16 06:43,2a93aca [ERROR] : TiApplication: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.gstreetmedia.threetwotest/org.appcelerator.titanium.TiActivity}: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to java.lang.Boolean [ERROR] : TiApplication: at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:2176) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at android.app.ActivityThread.handleLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:2226) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at android.app.ActivityThread.access$700(ActivityThread.java:135) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at android.app.ActivityThread$H.handleMessage(ActivityThread.java:1397) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:102) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:137) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:4998) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:515) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:777) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:593) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) [ERROR] : TiApplication: Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to java.lang.Boolean [ERROR] : TiApplication: at org.appcelerator.titanium.view.TiUIView.registerForTouch(TiUIView.java:1455) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at org.appcelerator.titanium.view.TiUIView.registerForTouch(TiUIView.java:1270) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at org.appcelerator.titanium.proxy.TiViewProxy.handleGetView(TiViewProxy.java:474) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at org.appcelerator.titanium.proxy.TiViewProxy.getOrCreateView(TiViewProxy.java:451) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at org.appcelerator.titanium.proxy.TiViewProxy.realizeViews(TiViewProxy.java:489) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at org.appcelerator.titanium.proxy.TiViewProxy.handleGetView(TiViewProxy.java:473) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at org.appcelerator.titanium.proxy.TiViewProxy.getOrCreateView(TiViewProxy.java:451) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at org.appcelerator.titanium.proxy.TiViewProxy.handleAdd(TiViewProxy.java:568) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at org.appcelerator.titanium.proxy.TiViewProxy.add(TiViewProxy.java:546) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at ti.modules.titanium.ui.WindowProxy.windowCreated(WindowProxy.java:303) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at org.appcelerator.titanium.TiActivityWindows.windowCreated(TiActivityWindows.java:32) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at org.appcelerator.titanium.TiBaseActivity.windowCreated(TiBaseActivity.java:451) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at org.appcelerator.titanium.TiBaseActivity.onCreate(TiBaseActivity.java:527) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at org.appcelerator.titanium.TiActivity.onCreate(TiActivity.java:18) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at android.app.Activity.performCreate(Activity.java:5243) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at android.app.Instrumentation.callActivityOnCreate(Instrumentation.java:1087) [ERROR] : TiApplication: at android.app.ActivityThread.performLaunchActivity(ActivityThread.java:2140) [ERROR] : TiApplication: ... 11 more index.xml is as follows

    Suggestion for fixing this is to update TiUIView.java with protected void registerForTouch(final View touchable) { if (touchable == null) { return; } boolean clickable = true; if (proxy.hasProperty(TiC.PROPERTY_TOUCH_ENABLED)) { Object obj = proxy.getProperty(TiC.PROPERTY_TOUCH_ENABLED); if (obj.getClass().equals(String.class)) { clickable = obj.equals("false") ? false : true; } else if (obj.getClass().equals(Boolean.class)) { clickable = (Boolean) obj; } } if (clickable) { registerTouchEvents(touchable); // Previously, we used the single tap handling above to fire our click event. It doesn't // work: a single tap is not the same as a click. A click can be held for a while before // lifting the finger; a single-tap is only generated from a quick tap (which will also cause // a click.) We wanted to do it in single-tap handling presumably because the singletap // listener gets a MotionEvent, which gives us the information we want to provide to our // users in our click event, whereas Android's standard OnClickListener does _not_ contain // that info. However, an "up" seems to always occur before the click listener gets invoked, // so we store the last up event's x,y coordinates (see onTouch above) and use them here. // Note: AdapterView throws an exception if you try to put a click listener on it. doSetClickable(touchable); } else { touchable.setSoundEffectsEnabled(false); } }
