[android-beginners] Re: Cannot parse adb version
Alright, so here are some things you should do: 1 - When you run "adb" from your terminal window you get output 2 - When you run "ant -v" from the you get some output telling you your ant version and an error about build.xml If these two things are working, then you don't *need* Eclipse to do your android development. As was stated earlier, ADT on Windows7 doesn't work well if at all. You can do android development using whatever you want (vim, emacs, notepad, etc). If you need an IDE perhaps you should give NetBeans a try. There is an android development plugin made for NetBeans that might work on Windows 7. Either using NetBeans or some text editor try and get the Hello World application working on your emulator. The best way to do that would be to simply use ant to build your project (make sure your emulator is already running): yourandroidproject $ ant compile yourandroidproject $ adb install -r bin/yourandroidproject.apk In another window you may want to be running logcat so that you can be sure the application you are trying to install is actually being sent to your emulator. I highly suggest you try getting this working from the command line first.

[android-beginners] Re: source not found error!
If you generated a project with Eclipse you should've had to create an activity when you created the project. Open up your AndroidManifest.xml file and look at it (either using the ADT tool or simply the XML itself) and make sure you have something similar to this: The Android documentation explains the manifest file quite well I suggest you check that out too. http://developer.android.com/intl/fr/guide/topics/manifest/manifest-intro.html Cheers, On Jan 15, 6:27 am, umar wrote: > and which activity should i add??? please guide i am new to android. > development.. > > On Jan 15, 4:17 pm, Manoj wrote: > > > You might have not added your activity in Manifest file, Add it there. > > > On Jan 15, 4:11 pm, umar wrote: > > > > can any one provide me solution to this problem?? > > > i using windows vista with ADT on eclipse > > > > and getting this error > > > > SOURCE NOT FOUND > > > > EDIT SOURCE LOOKUP PATH > > > > activitythread.performlaunchactivity(activitythread > > > $activityrecord,intent) > > > > how to resolve this??- Hide quoted text - > > > - Show quoted text - -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.

[android-beginners] Re: MediaPlayer cannot play music file in res/raw folder
I am doing my development against Android 1.5 in the emulator. I don't think it's anything 'special'. Also, the mp3 files aren't very large, they are about 7K each.

[android-beginners] MediaPlayer cannot play music file in res/raw folder
Hello,
I am trying to make an app that simply plays an mp3 file when you
click on a button. I've based my code off the API Demos from the
android website, and I've been scouring various Android developer
boards but all the solutions are still resulting in the same problem.
When you click on the button this code should be executed:
private void playAudio(Integer media){
MediaPlayer m = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.b);
m.start();
}
When the program gets executed and I click on the button the program
crashes. All I've been able to determine from the stack trace is
that:
1 - The resource file cannot be found
or
2 - I am not able to open the file descriptor for some reason (it's
compressed?)
Here is the stack trace I am getting from logcat:
