好吧，我想通了。显然， TabActivity 扩展的ActivityGroup ，它扩展了活动。但是，在你的code类扩展了活动这不是一个活动组。

那么有两种选择：

1）如果你想在标签内容要活动，有你的类扩展（的的ActivityGroup ，而不是活动 ）。那么您的通话设置应 host.setup（getLocalActivityManager（））;

此方式，您都仿效 TabActivity 源$ C ​​$ C。

2）如果你可以有你的选项卡的内容是访问量（与活动），让你的类从活动延伸，并保持您的来电设置（）。但对于setContent部分做这样的事情：

  host.addTab（host.newTabSpec（二）
                .setIndicator（第二名的成绩）
                .setContent（新TabContentFactory（）{

                    公共查看createTabContent（字符串变量）{
                        返回新的TextView（TestActivity.this）;
                    }
                }））;
 

，然后定义里面createTabContent您的列表视图（这通常我做什么 - 我使用的观点，而不是活动的选项卡的内容preFER）。

OK, I must be overlooking something silly because I am unable to get my tabhost to display in my Activity class. I am getting the dreaded force close when I try to run the app. It will work if i extend TabActivity, but I can't do that [see edit below] because once I move the code from my prototype project its going to be in a custom class that inherits from Activity.

Here is the XML layout:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TabHost xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/tabhost"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent">    
    <LinearLayout
        android:orientation="vertical"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent">        
        <TabWidget 
            android:id="@android:id/tabs"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content" />            
        <FrameLayout 
            android:id="@android:id/tabcontent"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="fill_parent" />
    </LinearLayout>
</TabHost>

And here is the class that is trying to create and display the TabHost:

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
import android.widget.TabHost;

public class my_proto extends Activity
{   
   /** Called when the activity is first created. */
   @Override
   public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
   {
      Log.i(this.toString(), "OnCreate");

      super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
      setContentView(R.layout.main);

      Log.i(this.toString(), "get tab host");
      TabHost host = (TabHost)findViewById(R.id.tabhost); 
      host.setup();

      Log.i(this.toString(), "add tabs");
      host.addTab(host.newTabSpec("one")
                      .setIndicator("First Results")
                      .setContent(new Intent(this, FirstResultsListViewActivity.class)));

      host.addTab(host.newTabSpec("two")
                      .setIndicator("Second Results")
                      .setContent(new Intent(this, SecondResultsListViewActivity.class)));

      Log.i(this.toString(), "adjust tab size");
      host.getTabWidget().getChildAt(0).getLayoutParams().height = 35;
      host.getTabWidget().getChildAt(1).getLayoutParams().height = 35;

   }// end onCreate

}// end class my_proto

This is the error I get in the log.

Its complaining about not calling setup, but I am calling it. There is another version of setup that needs some kind of LocalActivityMananger. I have tried replacing the call to setup the call below but no luck.

LocalActivityManager mLocalActivityManager = new LocalActivityManager(this, false);
host.setup(mLocalActivityManager);

[edit] The call above didn't work so I took it back out. Although I was getting a new error logged.

11-17 20:24:58.382: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(1432): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.my_proto/com.my_proto.my_proto}: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Activities can't be added until the containing group has been created.

[edit] Based on some of the comments below I realized I need to be clearer about why I can't inherit from TabActivity. Once I have the prototype working I need to port this into an existing app's screen that inherits from Activity. I will need to load the TabHost into a Layout within that Activity. It will basically be a LinearLayout with a row of status icons, followed my a LinearLayout with the Tabhost in it. I know that if I can get this working I can move onto the next phase. Thanks!

Ok I figured it out. Apparently, TabActivity extends ActivityGroup, which extends Activity. But in your code your class extends Activity which is not an activity group.

So there are two options:

1) If you want the tab content to be activities, have your class extend ActivityGroup (instead of Activity). Then your call to setup should be host.setup(getLocalActivityManager());

This way you are emulating the TabActivity source code.

2) If you can have your tab content be views (vs activities), keep your class as extending from Activity, and keep your call to setup(). But for the setContent part do something like this:

host.addTab(host.newTabSpec("two")
                .setIndicator("Second Results")
                .setContent(new TabContentFactory() {

                    public View createTabContent(String tag) {
                        return new TextView(TestActivity.this);
                    }
                }));

And then define your list view inside createTabContent (that's usually what I do - I prefer using views instead of activities as the contents of the tabs).
