Hi, I've never seen this behavior. If there was any errors in your project, the R.java file would not be updated but it certainly would not disappear during the build.

I then restarted eclipse and went to properties and told it the location of the m5 version of the sdk. I created a new android project (to test things) and R.java was created no problems. I then modified a file (main.xml) and when eclipse rebuilt the project, R.java disappeared. I tried cleaning the project, going to android tools and fixing project properties, basically anything that people recommended to get m5 to work on a project. Nothing would fix it.

I have tried the same steps on both of cleaning and whatnot to try to fix it. I am out of ideas on what to do.

[android-beginners] Re: debug port
The 8100 port is on the emulator and is not directly accessible. The ports starting at 8600 are setup by ddms. There is one port setup for each running application. Connecting a debugger to this port actually connects to ddms, which then forward packets between the debugger and the applications through adb. If you use eclipse with ADT, you do not have to worry about the debugger ports as ADT will automatically get them from the ddms plugin and connect the debugger automatically to the proper port.

[android-beginners] Re: Debugging a service
Hi, you can definitively debug a service. The issue is connecting a debugger to it If you are using Eclipse/ADT, the first possibility is to launch another part of your application (an activity) in debug mode to have ADT connect a debugger to your app directly. Then, once you see your app in the DDMS Devices view with a green bug icon next to it (means a debugger is connected), you can trigger your service and you will stop in your break points. If you can't start an activity of your application, or if you don't use ADT, you can force the VM to stop and wait for a debugger in your service code. Simply put a call to android.os.Debug.waitforDebugger(); before your break point. Upon reaching this line, the VM will pause. You will see a red bug icon in the DDMS devices view (standalone or eclipse perspective). From then you need to connect a debugger. Look at the 5th column in the Devices view, this will indicate the debugger port for this application. Connect a remote debugger to localhost and the shown port, and the bug icon should turn green, and the VM should resume execution (and you should stop in your break point) Xav On Wed, Jul 2, 2008 at 6:15 AM, www.netthreads.co.uk [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I have been playing around with the api samples bundled with the SDK.

[android-beginners] Re: Android Emulator problem
You don't need to launch the emulator every time you want to debug. Just keep it running, and Eclipse will replace your application with the new version whenever you launch a run/debug session from Eclipse. To answer your ealier question, there is, starting with this version, a new layout editor that will allow you to have a preview of your layout XML files. Simply open an XML located in your projectres/layout[-qualifier]/ folders If the new editor does not open and you see the default XML editor: - make sure you installed the Android Editors plugin. - right click on the XML file and choose Open With Android Layout Editor (files created before the installation of the new plugin may not be setup to use the new editor, but files created after should default to the layout editor).

[android-beginners] Re: Emulator starts but HelloAndroid doesn't run
You are using the Eclipse plugin version 0.8.0 that was released to be used by the new SDK 1.0. The problem is that the name of the HOME process changed between 0.9 and 1.0 so the Eclipse plugin never sees it being launched on the emulator. Please update to the new SDK, so that Eclipse properly detects the HOME process, and finish the launch process by installing your app on the emulator and starting it.

It looks like for some reason JAVA_HOME is set to the bin folder of the JDK instead of the top folder. Change your JAVA_HOME to c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_01 and it will work.

The new Archive Site option is part of the installation steps, which then installs the Android preference panel (among other things) From the installation steps at http://developer.android.com/sdk/1.1_r1/installing.html : 1.

In the subsequent Search Results dialog box, select the checkbox for Android Plugin Developer Tools. This will check both features: Android Developer Tools, and Android Editors. The Android Editors feature is optional, but recommended. If you choose to install it, you need the WST plugin mentioned earlier in this page. Click Next. 7.

Installed SDK version 1.1 for Linux 2. I installed Ganymede eclipse 3.4.2. Installed the ADT plugin using the steps as inhttp://developer.android.com/sdk/1.1_r1/installing.html#installingplugin. 3. Obtained cupcake code using repo client and built it successfully as mentioned inhttp://source.android.com/download. Configured Eclipse as mentioned inhttp://source.android.com/using-eclipse. 4. Then I followed the steps Debugging the emulator with Eclipse in http://source.android.com/using-eclipse 5. I launch emulator from android-root/out/host/linux-x86/bin/ emulator. Setup proxy etc. 6. I was trying to debug browser application and putting some breakpoints in WebView.java files namely in loadUrl() and loadData() functions. I launch browser and it displays the homepage (say,www.google.com) correctly. Then I create a Debug Config for brower application with Host = localhost and Port = 8700. And select Debug. 7. I then select Menu Refresh to check if breakpoints are hit. The issue is it is NOT hit. Another point to clarify is that the build and the code are in synch as I didn't make a change in the code.

[android-beginners] Re: Problems with 1.5 SDK
This is very strange because this code has not changed in a long time. It's trying to offer you to opt-in for SDK usage statistic but fails to do so. One solution: launch DDMS from the command line (in SDK/tools), this will offer you to opt-in as well, and write the result in a config file. Then launch Eclipse/ADT again and ADT will not (try to) display the opt-in message and you won't have the crash. We'll fix try to this asap.

Exactly. The device chooser sees that the device is running the correct API level, but it cannot know if the device actually has the optional library that your application require.

What we use on java is the user.home property setup by the VM. Looks like the Java VM thinks your home is in S:\... I look again into these 2 env variables and see if they could be used. Also, a single line in the installation instructions could have prevented this confusion. When Android can see the AVD from the command line and the Eclipse gui, but not from the emulator, and no explanation is given (especially on the first test project), it's ... disheartening. I agree. We should at least have the emulator output a message saying where it's looking for the AVD and how to fix the problem if it's not where the AVDs are created. In any event, with the ANDROID_SDK_HOME variable set to the S: home (which is not the real home directory, that is on C:), the emulator now works. Well we don't want to go and set a permanent env on your machine. I guess we could but relying on existing standard env variables should be better. I mean, what happens if the user removes it or change the location of his/her home folder but doesn't update this? In any case we do need to find a solution.

What we use on java is the user.home property setup by the VM. Looks like the Java VM thinks your home is in S:\... I look again into these 2 env variables and see if they could be used. Also, a single line in the installation instructions could have prevented this confusion. When Android can see the AVD from the command line and the Eclipse gui, but not from the emulator, and no explanation is given (especially on the first test project), it's ... disheartening. I agree. We should at least have the emulator output a message saying where it's looking for the AVD and how to fix the problem if it's not where the AVDs are created. In any event, with the ANDROID_SDK_HOME variable set to the S: home (which is not the real home directory, that is on C:), the emulator now works. Well we don't want to go and set a permanent env on your machine. I guess we could but relying on existing standard env variables should be better. I mean, what happens if the user removes it or change the location of his/her home folder but doesn't update this? In any case we do need to find a solution.

[android-beginners] Re: Multiple SDK version HOWTO?
Starting with Android 1.5 SDK, the SDK isn't tied to a specific version of Android anymore. Instead the SDK is a combo of the following components: - The tools (DDMS, adb, etc..) - The documentation - One, or more, platforms, ie you could have 1.1, 1.5, and 1.6 in your SDK (and any platforms we release in the future) - add-ons (for instance of the Google API add-on which exists for 1.5 and 1.6). This requires a recent ADT, to deal with the change in the SDK structure. From there, whenever you create a new project you must select what a platform you want to compile for, and when launching an emulator you can target which platform to run as well by creating AVDs (http://d.android.com/guide/developing/tools/avd.html). You could defintively have in the same workspace 1.1 projects alongside 1.5 and 1.6 projects (or even projects targeting add-ons). If you are still using the original 1.1 SDK, I _highly_ recommend that you download the latest SDK* and add 1.1 support to it via the SDK updater (http://d.android.com/guide/developing/updating-sdk.html) * the latest SDK is called Android 1.6 SDK but it's a misnomer really. It's just that it's the one that introduces the 1.6 component to the SDK. It can actually support 1.5 (which is in fact pre-packaged) and 1.1 (available as a separate download, see doc about SDK updater). We will probably straighten out how we name SDKs in the near future. Xav On Wed, Oct 7, 2009 at 9:34 AM, Justin Anderson janderson@gmail.com wrote: As far as I am aware the only way to do that is to either specify the minimum SDK version as 1.1 and only use features from that SDK (it should still run on 1.5 and 1.6) or to have separate apps with different packages, etc...

[android-beginners] Re: Help! I get this error message concerning the AVD
Hello all, yes it looks like there's a bug in the emulator where it can't deal with those characters in the path. To fix this you can override the location where all the android tools look for those files. create a system wide environment variable called ANDROID_SDK_HOME and containing a path that doesn't include those non ascci char. The android tools will create a .android folder in it, and the emulator will access it too. We'll see about fixing the emulator too.

[android-beginners] Re: SDK r3 not working on Mac?
ah yeah that's a problem. It looks like we removed this enforcing of 1.5 from the DDMS/Traceview but we forgot to remove it from android. We're going to fix this, but in the mean time you can either reorder your java priorities as Chris said, or you can replace the line 69 in tools/android: java_cmd=/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5/Commands/java by java_cmd=java Xav On Wed, Oct 28, 2009 at 4:23 PM, Chris Garman cgarma...@gmail.com wrote: I had the same problem as the original poster. It looks like my access rights were all correct. Here's a theory though. Check your Java Preferences (Applications- Utilities-Java Preferences) to see which is the preferred order of Java for your Java Applications. Initially my ordering was this: Java 6 (64-bit), Java 5 (64-bit), Java 5 (32-bit), Java 1.4.2 (32-bit). In the android script, it explicitly calls to the 1.5 version of java, which, given my preferences, ran the 64-bit version of Java 5. So the android script explicitly calls Java 5, to avoid running in 64-bit mode, but the preferences dictate to use the 64-bit version of Java 5, and thus it does. Here's the snippet from tools/android: # Mac OS X needs an additional arg, or you get an illegal thread complaint. if [ `uname` = Darwin ]; then os_opts=-XstartOnFirstThread #because Java 1.6 is 64 bits only and SWT doesn't support this, we force the usage of java 1.5 java_cmd=/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5/ Commands/java . Initially changing java_cmd from /System/Library/Frameworks/ JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5/Commands/java to java worked for me (so this switched from 1.5 (64-bit) to 1.6(64-bit). I played with a few combinations and here are my results: Java 1.6 (64-bit) - works Java 1.5 (64-bit) - does not work Java 1.5 (32-bit) - works So my guess is that you need the right combination of java_cmd in the android script and Java Preferences to get it to work correctly.

[android-beginners] Re: Motorola Droid Virtual Device
Can you define way too small and way too big. For instance, if you scale it down, use a tape measurer to check that it displays (or not) the diagonal size you entered. Also check the monitor resolution you entered. You can use the '?' button to get an estimate. As for way too big, it's actually not. The Droid resolution 854x480 is actually pretty big, but it's because the screen density (close to 240) is 2.5x to 3x the density of a typical monitor. If you don't use the scaling feature, the emulator show a pixel perfect rendering. It's just that your monitor pixel are 3 times bigger.
