Problem resolving an android.content.res.Resources error

I understand that this error has been addressed severally and I’ve checked most of them like Android: android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException: String resource ID #0x5, android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException: String resource ID to see if I could find a solution to my problem but I couldn’t and most of them are hard to understand. I can’t tell if my code is an int/string so I don’t know exactly what to correct, so I need help.

I got this error at runtime:

Answer

android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException: String resource ID #0x601ee924
        at android.content.res.Resources.getText(Resources.java:348)
        at android.widget.TextView.setText(TextView.java:5848)
        at com.tex.lightweatherforecast.Activity.HomeActivity$1.onResponse(HomeActivity.java:66)

As shown above, the exception is raised in HomeActivity in onResponse() method line (66) where you try to set a text into a TextView.

So, In HomeActivity you’ve:

 time_field.setText(response.body().getCurrent().getDt());

And as per documentation, .getDt() returns an integer, so you can’t set it directly to TextView unless you convert it to a String.

To solve this, replace that line of code with one of:

 // 1st
 time_field.setText(String.valueOf(response.body().getCurrent().getDt()));

 // 2nd
 time_field.setText("" + response.body().getCurrent().getDt());
