Resources$NotFoundException: File res/color/dark.xml from drawable resource

I have that error. I tried clean project. I can see “dark” in “R” file. I can use it in project: I mean autocomplete working well, but when I turn on app on emulator there is this error. There is how I use it:

songList.setSelector(R.color.dark);

Answer 1

The correct way to use setSelector() is:

Create a xml in res/drawable

For example, let res/drawable/selector.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
   <selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:state_selected="true"   
    android:drawable="@color/black" />
</selector>

Then declare black in your res\values\strings.xml

<color name="black">#000000</color>

Then set selector as

songList.setSelector( R.drawable.selector);

EDIT:
Try cleaning your project in Eclipse and re-starting Eclipse.
