Unable to complete challenge.

Android Objects, stage 4. For 3 days I have been getting a communication problem. The challenge will not complete, which is rendering the site useless.

Can you share your code please? It could be an infinite loop.

Sorry for the frustration, we'll figure out.

Craig,

Thanks for the speedy reply. The code doesn't contain a loop, so not that.

The code challenge did ultimately complete.

At first I thought I was just taking too long to answer, and it was timing out.

I was using Chrome, but did try Firefox and Safari, both on a Mac and a Windows box.

I think it was just some type of glitch, because it would even throw the communication error if I quickly typed in just a single line of code, like:

char[] charArray = fieldName.toCharArray();

This should have just given some type of error stating that the answer was wrong or incomplete.

After that I tried making a quick syntax error, but it would only show a blank box in the preview tab. Since it didn't give a syntax error even when I only typed in a single line, I assumed it just wasn't running.

I've run into this before, which I would expect when trying to serve an environment over the web...it's just never taken this long to get moving again.

Thanks again for your help!
