VisualGDB-Android-VS2008 Errors unless rebuild all

[brettjones1900]

When I make a change to the code and build I get
1> [aapt] Generating resource IDs…
1> [aapt] invalid resource directory name: F:ArchivedProjectsDestroyTheWorldCodeprojectbinres/crunch
1>BUILD FAILED
1>F:AndroidSDKSsdktoolsantbuild.xml:653: The following error occurred while executing this line:

The contents of build.xml at 653

elseText=”hasCode = false. Skipping aidl/renderscript/R.java”>
Handling aidl files…
framework=”${project.target.framework.aidl}”
libraryBinAidlFolderPathRefid=”project.library.bin.aidl.folder.path”
genFolder=”${gen.absolute.dir}”
aidlOutFolder=”${out.aidl.absolute.dir}”>

The contents of build.xml at 698
proguardFile=”${out.absolute.dir}/proguard.txt”>

If I do a rebuild all then the build succeeds but the project is rather large and takes about 10 minutes to build.
After the build when I launch from eclipse I get
R.java was modified manually! Reverting to generated version!
So I launch again and this time it is successful and everything works as expected and I can debug etc.

Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advanced

Hi,

It looks like this issue: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=60496
Some of the discussions on the issue are also here: https://plus.google.com/+AndroidDevelopers/posts/hNZNjqKLpny
Try the workarounds discussed there.

From the discussion it sounded like it was from target platform miss match and mine was miss matched because i was trying to target platform 10 which visualGDB does not have a equivalent platform and google does not offer platform-9
I instead targeted platform 14 but got the same results.. here are the steps I took

in eclipse I right clicked project and select properties
selected android and check the box next to Android 4.0

clicked the button ok

opened AndroidManifest.xml and set

cleaned the project

open the file project.properties and verify it has the lines
# Project target.
target=android-14

In visual studio clicked Project->Visual GDB Project Settings
Selected Build Settings
In Drop Down under Target selected android-14

rebuild all

worked first time but fails next time unless do rebuild all.. did I miss something?.
Anyway Unchecking Build Automatically in eclipse fixes the build fail and less of a hassle than a rebuild all
so I guess this issue is resolved

Hi,

If it works the first time but not after, then check whether any of your manual file changes were automatically overwritten by ANT or VisualGDB.

I checked.. it doesn’t get overwritten but the build sequence is now not time consuming so works ok.
In eclipse clean project. In Visual Studio build. In eclipse build all then launch.
Overall I am happy with my purchase of VisualGDB. Makes debugging android apps fast and easy.
