Question

Somehow the the android packager does not (anymore) include the class files from my application in the APK.

I have tried everything that came to my mind from comparing my settings to a sample project to reinstalling Eclipse. However, when I package the app, be it through ‘Export (un)signed Application Package’ or just by running it on a debug device/emulator, everything is included (jar libraries, android library projects (e.g. ActionBarSherlock)) except my own code. 🙁

Here is the minimal configuration which still produces the problem…Thanks for any hints or help!

Android Manifest:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        package="com.kawak.bla.android"
        android:versionCode="1"
        android:versionName="1.0" >

        <uses-sdk
            android:minSdkVersion="8"
            android:targetSdkVersion="17" />

        <application
            android:allowBackup="true"
            android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
            android:label="@string/app_name"
            android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
            <activity
                android:name=".activity.MainActivity"
                android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar" >
                <intent-filter>
                    <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                    <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
                </intent-filter>
            </activity>
        </application>
    </manifest>

Classpath:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <classpath>
        <classpathentry kind="con" path="com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.ANDROID_FRAMEWORK"/>
        <classpathentry kind="con" path="com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.LIBRARIES"/>
        <classpathentry kind="lib" path="libs/json-simple-1.1.1.jar"/>
        <classpathentry kind="lib" path="libs/zbar.jar"/>
        <classpathentry combineaccessrules="false" kind="src" path="/SherlockActionBar"/>
        <classpathentry kind="src" path="src"/>
        <classpathentry kind="src" path="gen"/>
        <classpathentry kind="output" path="bin/classes"/>
    </classpath>

Eclipse project configuration:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <projectDescription>
        <name>bla-android</name>
        <comment></comment>

Update:
My problem was actually that ActionBarSherlock was built against Android 4.2 which somehow screwed it all without a decent error message. Luckily it is mentioned in the FAQs that you have to build it against 4.0 … Accepting Robert’s answer as he was the closest.

Answer 1

How do you Most likely you have a build error, and the process is not being able to complete it’s job.
