title: How can I inflate glsurfaceview in android's layout xml
body: <p>I am trying to put a GLSurfaceView in  a xml layout, but when I try to do it my application keeps closing automatically.
  I think the problem is in layout/activity_main.xml, because I don't know the name of the tag for glsurgaceview.
  This is my code. 
  Can you please tell me what is wrong with my code. Thanks for your help.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
      xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="match_parent"
      android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
      android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
      android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
      android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
       tools:context=".AnimationActivity"&gt;
  
      &lt;TextView
          android:id="@+id/angolo"
          android:layout_width="wrap_content"
  android:layout_height="wrap_content"
          android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
          android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
          android:layout_marginTop="135dp"
          android:text="Angolo:"
          android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium" /&gt;
  
      &lt;view
          class="rugani.tesi.animazione3d.AnimationActivity$MyGLSurfaceView" 
          android:id="@+id/myglsurfaceView"
          android:layout_width="match_parent"
          android:layout_height="match_parent"
          /&gt;
  
  &lt;/RelativeLayout&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This is myglsurfaceview :</p>
  
  <pre><code>protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  
    Logger.log("onCreate");
  
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    getActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
  
  
    /*
    mGLView = new GLSurfaceView(getApplication());
    mGLView.setEGLContextClientVersion(2);
    mGLView.setEGLConfigChooser(new AAConfigChooser(mGLView));
    mGLView.setRenderer(renderer); 
    setContentView(mGLView);
    */
    //mGLView = new MyGLSurfaceView(getApplication());
    //setContentView(mGLView);
  
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    mGLView = (MyGLSurfaceView) findViewById(R.id.graphics_glsurfaceview);
  
    pluto=(MyApplication)this.getApplication();
    mBoundService=pluto.getObj();
   }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and this is my oncreate()</p>
  
  <pre><code>private MyGLSurfaceView mGLView; 
  private MyGLRenderer renderer;
  protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  
    Logger.log("onCreate");
  
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    getActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
  
  
    /*
    mGLView = new GLSurfaceView(getApplication());
    mGLView.setEGLContextClientVersion(2);
    mGLView.setEGLConfigChooser(new AAConfigChooser(mGLView));
    mGLView.setRenderer(renderer); 
    setContentView(mGLView);
    */
    //mGLView = new MyGLSurfaceView(getApplication());
    //setContentView(mGLView);
  
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    mGLView = (MyGLSurfaceView) findViewById(R.id.graphics_glsurfaceview);
  
   }
