import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
public class MovieActivity extends Activity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_movie);
// Get some movie information!
String apiUrl = "http://api.rottentomatoes.com/api/public/v1.0/movies.json?apikey=xyz&q=hobbit";
OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient();
Request request = new Request.Builder().url(apiUrl).build();
}
}
If you click on the preview button with your code, it should give you a message of "cannot find symbol". This typically means you're making reference to something that doesn't exist (or doesn't exist yet).
