I’m trying to learn Java and need some help with AndroidManifest.xml

My little hello world project is working code-wise, but I’m confused with making changes to the manifest. Specifically, in the code above package name is “com.android” and in data/app my app shows up as com.android-1.apk. When I try to change it to something like com.jocala or com.jocala.hba1c I get package R does not exist errors through my compile, which fails.

What changes do I need to make? Anything else here that is glaringly bad?

I am working using Ant, VI and the Linux console, no Eclipse.

You should change the package of the java code, let it in accordance with the package which you defined in the manifest file.
