Android Implementing Designs for Android Customizing a ListView for the Inbox Adding a Swipe-to-Refresh Gesture

Struggling with the mRefreshLayout code challenge - help please!

I've got as far as the second stage of this; here's the question and my code. I'm not sure what is wrong with this ... obviously something!

Next we need to set that variable from the layout. The SwipeRefreshLayout element in the layout has the ID R.id.refreshLayout.

public class MainActivity extends ListActivity {

    public SwipeRefreshLayout mRefreshLayout; 

    mRefreshLayout = (SwipeRefreshLayout)findViewById(R.id.refreshLayout);

Thanks!

Steve.
