I generated a new android project in eclipse. I then copied all the files from chapter 3 in my book over to the project. After doing so the R.anything is not available and the resource file is missing. I try to clean the project and generate it but it isn't working. What I can do to fix this error?

Suddenly my R file has stopped generating. It has deleted itself and won't come back. In eclipse, I have all the latest updates to the sdk and the plugging. Has this ever happened to anyone else before, how do you fix it?! I have tried restarting, cleaning the project, rebuilding, doing the Android->fix project properties.

<resources> <section>

Using XmlPullParser, on the START_TAG, I can use:
int value = parser.getAttributeIntValue(null, "value", 0);
to get values 1, 2, 3...however:
int resourceId = parser.getAttributeIntValue(null, "resourceId", 0);
doesn't work...it just yields the default value 0, or whatever I change the default value (3rd parameter) to be. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong or if this is possible?
After i created my project. The R file is not generating. I need to build the application to create that R file. After i add any image or string. It is not automatically adding in R file. I need to build another time to generate that code in R file. what is the reason?
View 4 Replies View RelatedAll of the android examples for XmlPullParser pull from a local resource file, and all of the SAX examples pull the XML from a URL. I've been told SAX is faster, so I'm trying to use that to pull data from a local resource file (res/xml/thefile.xml)
The example code I'm working off of is here. So in that example, the code I want to change is:
URL url = new URL("http://example.com/example.xml");
...
xr.parse(new InputSource(url.openStream()));
Instead of using URL, I want to use getXml(R.xml.thefile)
Is that possible, or does SAX need to get data from a URL?
I'm interested in instantiating a LinearLayout object from an xml file that has a LinearLayout file configuration. I want to do this within a method of my Activity. I tried findViewById() but that returned null. I've made sure that the LinearLayout id is the one I'm passing. Note that this layout isn't part of my screen, it's stand-alone, so I want to build a LinearLayout object from the xml.

I am trying to read a file "words.txt" from a resource. It is a very simple, but large (2 MB), text file that I want to read line by line. I have put the file into /res/raw/words.txt, and try to open it with the following code:
CODE:...................
However, I get a java.io.IOException. This is not a "resource not found" exception, so the resource is opened correctly, but the readLine() produces the error.
I tried using the InputStream itself, with the result that read() produces -1, which stands for EOF, as if the file was empty.
I have a text file added as a raw resource. The text file contains text like:
a) IF APPLICABLE LAW REQUIRES ANY WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE SOFTWARE, ALL SUCH WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO NINETY (90) DAYS FROM THE DATE OF DELIVERY.
b) NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY VIRTUAL ORIENTEERING, ITS DEALERS, DISTRIBUTORS, AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES SHALL CREATE A WARRANTY OR IN ANY WAY INCREASE THE SCOPE OF ANY WARRANTY PROVIDED HEREIN.

I'm trying to unbundle a binary file (sound1.ogg) and store it on the sdcard.So it starts out as a raw resource (R.raw.sound1) and should end up as a copy named /sdcard/ mydir/sound1.ogg I wrote a method called something like copyResourceToFile() and did a copy via file descriptors / streams. But the target file just isn't right.If I do a buffered read, the target file ends up being WAY bigger - like 10x bigger.If I just do a byte-by-byte read for the size of the original file, the target file is the right size but is not the same file. Is there a simpler (well, correct/working) way to do this thing?

View 6 Replies View RelatedMy 1.6 app works fine in both portrait and landscape modes on the default HVGA device. I'm now trying to support it on QVGA devices and am encountering build-time errors I don't understand. In my res/drawable-ldpi directory I have:

startstopbuttonimageselector.xml
which contains:

I've 'fixed project properties' and done a 'clean' build, to no avail. The error I get is:
Error: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'drawable' with value '@drawable-ldpi/startstopin').
Error: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'drawable' with value '@drawable-ldpi/startstopout').
I've tried adding a layout file in res/layout-small that explicitly references this selector file, but this triggers a similar build error and fails to address the original problem:
Error: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'src' with value '@drawable-ldpi/startstopbuttonimageselector').
When I make a new android project and I go to res/values/string.xml I get a screen to add android resources instead of a XML document. I keeps getting the error about : java.lang.NullPointerException.
Is there a way to just alter a XML file (like suggested in tutorials)?
Forgot to mention that I am trying to make this file in Eclipse. If I try to build it using the ant command, it gives me no errors.

I downloaded three songs from Amazon MP3. 2/3 came through just fine. (Even though the download manager through Amazon says everything id fine)When I open my music player, I cannot find the third song. But when I look up through my 'file' app, I can fund it on my SD card, right where it is supposed to be. I can even play it through the file app. But even showing all music, that third song does not show up. What could the deal be there?

I followed the effen manual to flash a new ROM for my HCT Desire HD on Monday, December 12th with absolute success. However, I have lost the start up sound file and when I boot my android, it boots in quiet mode. I searched for a solution and found many threads explaining how to disable it, but very little on how to enable it.
The problem is when I open my SDcard and look in the media/audio/notifications all I have is a facebook.mp3 file, I do not have any other files that would allow for the start up sound to open on boot.
Again and again I have the case that during development, the Android SDK suddenly doesn't regenerate the "R" file. Usually this is due to some error in one of the many .xml files, but that darn thing doesn't give the slighted indication, as to WHY it suddenly refuses to regenerate that file. There is no error or warning listed for any of my .xml files and manually checking all those (meanwhile almost hundred!) XML files for errors is no real fun, either! Is there some option or log or something that would allow to locate the problem quicker and more direct? Last time I had to do a lengthy binary search (i.e. copying and removing files to/from a second test project) trying to locate the offending file. That's really a nightmare and not how it should be in any decent SDK that deserves that name!
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm creating a 2d game and have run into another problem. I use array lists for generating everything that has multiple instances, background images, foreground images, enemies, etc. The problem I have is if I choose to generate any more than a certain number of any given object I get an arrayindexoutofboundsexception even though the code works fine with lower numbers. For the background images that are larger, the number seems to be lower (about 40). for enemies, which are smaller, the limit is more (about 150). I don't believe I'm out of memory as I'm not getting that error.

The above codes work if the variable is lower. But sends the error as soon as it goes above a certain number.
I am trying to publish my first Android application, and therefore need to sign the app with a keystore. At first everything goes well. I type the following into the command prompt: keytool -genkey -v -keystore testKeystore.keystore -alias testKeystore -keyalg RSA -validity 10000. I answer the several questions that follow, but after the last question, I get the following error. keytool error: java.io.FileNotFoundException: testKeystore.keystore [Access is denied] Maybe I am doing some silly mistake, but I have followed several guides on the internet on how to make a keystore, and I thought that was all there was to it?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to generate the MD5 Fingerprint I will use with the release of my application. I used Eclipse to Compile and Sign my application, which gave me a keystore file and a .apk file. Now i need to generate the MD5 for my MapViews. I tried using the cmd prompt to generate it, but everytime it states that no such file exists. Is there somewhere special i need to be storing the keystore so the keytool has access to it? Also, once i get the MD5 fingerprint, all i have to do is insert it and re-compile and sign my application (the same way i previously did it). Am i correct on that assumption? I've read through the developer docs and I'm still unclear on the whole process.
