I have an android project with strings.xml file, what contains string values. Today when i opened eclipse, all my projects were gone from package explorer. So i moved my project files from workspace to another folder and imported them in eclipse.
Afther that projects showed up, but i got few errors. Eclipse reported “Error in an XML file, aborting build.
- I used android tools -> fix project
- Then I used Project clean(eclipse reported error in xml, aborted build)
- Then i opened my strings.xml file to see it is empty. I opened it with IE, Chrome, Notepad, Notepadd++(showed nullnullnull) and with open office – all programs show that my xml is empty.
- Opened file recovery program, what scanned for previous (deleted) files, but program was unable to find differend file version.
Encoding is set UTF-8, shows file size about 300 000 bytes.
So my question: Is there any way my xml file is not empty and i can recover it ?
Thanks in advance!
If you’re really lucky, you can see if Eclipse kept a version in its history.
Right click on the file and click on
Restore from Local History...
