Edit Text Display Panel Window

[Marilyn Titus]

Good afternoon,

While attempting to add an editText to a layout and then previewing it I end up getting the following stack trace (truncated for brevity):

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: java.lang.System.arraycopy([CI[CII)V

(Many more messages)

This is the "default" edit text from the toolbox on the left hand side of my screen. Has anyone come across this before and know how to fix it?

Thanks,

Marilyn
