Oh, thank you very much; using 2.2 works.

The instructions for Notepadv2 (exercise 2) say to create the project the same as Notepadv1 (exercise 1) and Notepadv1 says "we recommend selecting a target with the lowest platform version available", so is that misleading? Should the Notepadv2 instructions explain about the requirement for 2.2 and the fix you provide here for older versions?

Sam,

According to docs:

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/ViewGroup.LayoutParams.html


match_parent is introduced in API version 8, that is, Android 2.2

Your project is probably set up to compile against an earlier version of
Android. If that is the case, use layout_xxx="fill_parent", not
"match_parent".

I am getting errors from the Notepadv2 sample in the tutorials. If the
problem is that I made a mistake, then I will try to figure it out but
I really think I followed instructions. The tutorial is at:

http://developer.android.com/resources/tutorials/notepad/index.html

The Notepadv1 works for me, but Notepadv2 gets the errors below. All I
did was to create the project from the Notepadv2 source without
modifying anything. The gen folder is empty so I assume I can ignore
the errors about R.
