I have no clue what I'm supposed to be doing here. This is where I'm stuck in this challenge. Am I misunderstanding, or have I not retained the information?
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
public class LandingActivity extends Activity {
public Button mThrustButton;
public TextView mTypeLabel;
public EditText mPassengersField;
public Spaceship mSpaceship;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_landing);
mThrustButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.thrustButton);
mTypeLabel = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.typeTextView);
mPassengersField = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.passengersEditText);
// Add your code here!
mSpaceship = new Spaceship("FIREFLY");
}
}
public class Spaceship {
private String mType;
private int mNumPassengers = 0;
public String getType() {
return mType;
}
public void setType(String type) {
mType = type;
}
public int getNumPassengers() {
return mNumPassengers;
}
public void setNumPassengers(int numPassengers) {
mNumPassengers = numPassengers;
}
public Spaceship() {
mType = "SHUTTLE";
}
public Spaceship(String type) {
mType = type;
}
}

7,298 PointsSometimes it's helpful just to click on the check work button because it give's hints and the compiler will point out the errors.
For this challenge: Bummer! Use the TextView method to 'set' the 'text' of 'mTypeLabel' to the type from 'mSpaceship'.

Practice Example:
mTextView.setText(page.getText());
//What you need for this challenge:
mTypeLabel.setText(mSpaceship.getType());

5,160 PointsNow that we have a model object, update the TextView to use the Spaceship's type property. Remember to use the helpful getter method!
This is the 2nd challenge in this set and I'm not tracking at all.
