Log.d with ActionBarScherlock

I am trying to get a handle on LogCat by adding some code from a textbook example to one of my projects.

My project uses ABS

When I try and use:

    @Override
public void onPause(){
    super.onPause();
    Log.d(TAG,"onPause() called");
}

I am running into the error

TAG has private access in 'com.actionbarsherlock.app.SherlockFragmentActivity'

Why is this, and how can I get around it? I've had a search around on Google but not found anything relating to this.

Solution

  • There's a private field TAG in the parent SherlockFragmentActivity and you cannot use it.

    Instead, you should specify your own tag in your class, e.g.

    private static final String TAG = YourActivity.class.getSimpleName();
