One correction to what I wrote earlier: it is 'R.layout.main' that is problematic, not 'R.main.java'. Fortunately, I am not getting this spurious error message from Eclipse right now, so I cannot verify which version of 'R' it tries to bring in, but I can verify that the line it has trouble on is the one referring to 'R.layout.main' in the @Override for onCreate(Bundle) in the Activity being defined.
