I've run into an interesting problem that I think I've narrowed down to a regression bug in (at least) the latest version of the Android SDK, and I'm hoping someone here can help me confirm it.
The trace of the crash is this: [54329.978265] 05-28 22:49:34.190 E/AndroidRuntime( 7974): java.lang.IllegalStateException: The specified child already has a parent. You must call removeView() on the child's parent first.

The code leading up to that point is inflating a custom dialog from a layout XML resource; the interesting thing is that it was working fine in the previous release of the app, and a code compare confirms that it hasn't changed in the interim. However, this previous release was built on Feb 28, so it was definitely built with an earlier release of the SDK. I can't swear if it was built with r9 or 10. What I'm hoping is that somebody here still has an installation of r9 or r10 in place that they can try this on, to confirm my suspicion about the nature of this bug. It's quite easy to reproduce; the last example at http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/dialogs.html#CustomDialog (the Java in the final code block) will do it. Or, I can easily send a minimal test project too. Thanks... I'm off to try and work around it now.
