Using 2 spinners with onItemSelected
<p>I've looked at several threads and none of the suggestions made in there seem to fix the problem that I am having. I have 2 spinners in the same activity. The value that I select from one spinner is meant to populate the other one, and then I want to select a value from that second spinner. It works all the way up until I go to click on the second spinner after it has been dynamically populated, and then the application crashes. I'm not sure what else to do. I will post the relevant code that I have as well as the error message I am getting.</p>

<pre><code>public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 
{
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.bodyregionandpart_layout);
    bodyRegion = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.bodyregion);
    // Create an ArrayAdapter using the string array and a default spinner layout
    bodyRegionAdapter = new ArrayAdapter&lt;String&gt;(this, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, bodyregion);
    // Specify the layout to use when the list of choices appears
    bodyRegionAdapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
    // Apply the adapter to the spinner
    bodyRegion.setAdapter(bodyRegionAdapter);
    //Sets the spinner to listen when an item is selected
    bodyRegion.setOnItemSelectedListener(this);
}

public void onItemSelected(AdapterView&lt;?&gt; parent, View view, 
        int pos, long id) 
{
     if(parent.getId() == R.id.bodyregion)
     {
         switch(pos)
            {
            case 1:
                FillSpinner(Head);
                Log.d("bodyregion", "This is Head");
                break;
            }                    
     }
     else if(parent.getId() == R.id.bodypart)
     {
         Log.d("bodypart", "This is body part: " + (String) parent.getItemAtPosition(pos));
     }
}

public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView&lt;?&gt; parent) 

{
    // Another interface callback
}

public void FillSpinner(String[] a)
{
    //Fills array with contents of a
    for(int i = 0; i &lt; a.length; i++)
    {
        array[i] = a[i];
    }
    bodyPart = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.bodypart);
    // Create an ArrayAdapter using the string array and a default spinner layout
    bodyPartAdapter = new ArrayAdapter&lt;String&gt;(this, 
            android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, array);
    // Specify the layout to use when the list of choices appears
    bodyPartAdapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
    // Apply the adapter to the spinner
    bodyPart.setAdapter(bodyPartAdapter);
    bodyPart.setOnItemSelectedListener(this);
}

<p>And then this is the error message that I am receiving:</p>

<p>The second log message just shows the first choice in the spinner when it is created. Once I click it to select something else it crashes. Any help/suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.</p>
