Motion Event for the Android

Whats the problem with this code?

package com.evorlor.samplecode;

import android.app.Activity;

public class MotionEvent extends Activity {

    public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent me) {
        int i = me.getAction();

        switch (i) {

        case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
            // When your finger touches the screen

            break;

        case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
            // When your finger stop touching the screen

            break;

        case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
            // When your finger moves around the screen

            break;
        }

        return false;
    }

}

It is giving the error:

The method getAction() is undefined for the type MotionEvent on the .getAction(). It will not let me import:

import android.view.MotionEvent;

As far as I can tell, it is the same as this working code (aside from it not letting me import the import android.view.MotionEvent;):

package com.evorlor.counter;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Gravity;
import android.view.MotionEvent;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class Counter extends Activity {

    private static int count = 0;
    private static int hiCount = 0;
    private static boolean capCount = false;
    public static boolean resetCount = false;
    public static boolean askReset = false;

    public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent me) {
        if (me.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP) {
            count++;
        }

        onCreate(null);

        return false;
    }
}

Thanks for the help!

Rename your Activity to something else, it is conflicting with the actual MotionEvent Class it needs.

The class name you defined hides android.view.MotionEvent

public class MotionEvent

Just change the class name, your problem will be solved
