The eclipse build doesn't use build.xml at all, but due to the fact that build.xml is in the eclipse project (because it is in the same directory as AndroidManifest.xml) eclipse tries to "build it" or at least parse it and check for errors. build.xml can't be parsed by eclipse (even though it is a valid file according to ant) and thus the android builder refuses to launch the project at all. This seems wrong to me. > you can omit the android_rules file if you paste the needed targets > into your build file (or if you had them working in an older version) > then afaik just a few additions are needed (see below) Yes, thankyou, this is a possible work-around. But I thought I would Do the Right Thing and not duplicate code. According to the ant manual, any imported targets (which is what the android_rules targets are after calling the <setup /> task) may be overridden. This works perfectly for my ant builds. So the question remains; how do I get the eclipse android plugin to ignore my build.xml file? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
