I appeared to have fixed although I'm not sure exactly why. I closed all the projects in the workspace. Then I uninstalled any ADT components. After the Eclipse restart, I removed the ADT software source from the list of sources, exited out of all the dialogs, and added it back again (mostly just paranoia here I'm thinking). I then went back in to add software and added all the available ADT components at once.
After a restart and reopening the project, the XML now opens in the appropriate ADT editor. On Oct 22, 10:58 pm, Walt Armour <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm seeing this behaviour as well.
