I'm trying to create my first custom View subclass GraphView and add it to my layout XML file.

I found this SO question and tried to apply it to my project, but something seems to be wrong because Eclipse IDE tells me:

de.muza3000.graph.GraphView failed to instantiate.

and throws an exception:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: de.muza3000.graph.GraphView.<init>(android.content.Context, android.util.AttributeSet)

Here is my layout:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent">
    <TextView  
        android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
        android:text="@string/hello"/>
    <de.muza3000.graph.GraphView 
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"/>
</LinearLayout>

And my code:

package de.muza3000.graph;

import android.content.Context;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.view.View;

public class GraphView extends View {


    GraphView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle)
    {
        super(context, attrs, defStyle);
    }   


    GraphView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs)
    {
        super(context, attrs);
    }

    GraphView(Context context)
    {
        super(context);
    }

}

Change the access modifier of the constructors to public.
