Error inflating when extending a class

I think I figured out why this wasn’t working. I was only providing a constructor for the case of one parameter ‘context’ when I should have provided a constructor for the two parameter ‘Context, AttributeSet’ case. I also needed to give the constructor(s) public access. Here’s my fix:

public class GhostSurfaceCameraView extends SurfaceView implements SurfaceHolder.Callback {
        SurfaceHolder mHolder;
        Camera mCamera;

        public GhostSurfaceCameraView(Context context)
        {
            super(context);
            init();
        }
        public GhostSurfaceCameraView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs)
        {
            super(context, attrs);
            init();
        }
        public GhostSurfaceCameraView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
            super(context, attrs, defStyle);
            init();
        }
