Are there quotes around that URL in the source code? Also, is it possible that you're compiling with a version of the WebView toolkit that does not take just a single URL as a parameter?
The message "error: ')' expected" makes me think it's just a syntax error and the way you pasted it has not quotes around the URL. Also, http://your.url.com should be replaced with a valid url. Try changing the line to: mWebView.loadUrl("http://www.google.com"); to see if that works.
