[android-beginners] Re: Eclipse: Easy way to refactor/rename package?
Do you have Rename under File? I'm pretty sure it's the same function. Just highlight the project to rename that, the package to rename that.

If you are using Eclipse, you can use the Refactor tool to do what you want. Right-click on the project to be renamed, select Refactor from the object menu, and then rename from there.

Re: [android-beginners] Re: Eclipse: Easy way to refactor/rename package?
it's not the same function. The custom rename will update the manifest to make sure the activities, services, etc... are properly defined based on the new name. It's also going to update XML files that reference the package name (such as namespaces for custom attributes for custom views), etc... I have, however, spoken too soon. The feature didn't make it in ADT 0.9.7, but it'll be in the next ADT update. Xav On Mon, Jul 19, 2010 at 2:06 PM, DanH danhi...@ieee.org wrote: Do you have Rename under File?

File - Rename? You might have to do it twice -- once on the project and once on the package.

As for steps to insure everything is renamed correctly, that would be a clean, build, and thorough test -- what you should be doing anyway, of course.
