getIcon error!

.setIcon(mSectionsPagerAdapter.getIcon(i))

i keep getting an error that says cannot resolve?

1 Answer

.setIcon(mSectionsPagerAdapter.getIcon(i))

getIcon is a function in the SectionsPagerAdapter.java file. I would check to make sure that function exists and is set to public.

SectionsPagerAdapter.java

public int getIcon(int pos) {

        switch (pos) {
            case 0:
                return R.drawable.ic_tab_inbox;
            case 1:
                return R.drawable.ic_tab_friends;
            default:
                return R.drawable.ic_tab_inbox;
        }

    }
