Answer 1

it should be

 @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){

 }

onCreate is public, not protected.

Answer 2

So maybe the problem is compiler compliance level: 1.5 instead of 1.6 ?

@Baleisen which level is set for your project?

Answer 3

I don't know much about the android framework but:

First make sure your class extends a Class such as (Activity) which contains onCreate. Then try to call super.onCreate, to double check that Class you are extending contains onCreate! You could be pointing to another class with the same name. Your compiler says that there is nothing to override, if you are sure it is wrong, then either your compiler is out dated or the framework.

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
            //yourCode
    }

Also if your extending and extended class, make sure, this method, I posted is in the class extending the class. It could freak out on this.

Answer 4

What your class extends ? And which android SDK version you're compiling ?

Answer 5

This has happened to me before and the problem was the Android SDK hadn't loaded into Eclipse fully.

Also, do you have this import in your file? The parent onCreate method is in Activity.

import android.app.Activity;

java - @Override and Super

It seems to me that when you override methods you intend to modify their usefulness. But why evoke the same method in the superclass (in the way in which it was originally written) if it does not interest me like that? That is, modifying the method and then calling the same method on the original way it seems to me that the first change was undone by the second. Where am I wrong?
