Yesterday, I started having some problems with 9-patch images in Android and Eclipse Helios. To try to fix it, I updated ADT plugin and everything got worse. It seems Eclipse stopped being compatible with ADT.
I stopped being able to export any app. I’ve tried exporting signed and obfuscated APK, only signed, unsigned obfuscated and unsigned non-obfuscated, always with same result (I copy stack-trace at the end). However, I am able to install the app in my device in debug mode.
More strange, I am able to export signed simple apps such as API demos. Is it possible to get this error due to something wrong in my app? (I’ve made huge changes since last time I succeed exporting my app, so I can’t tell all that has changed)
I increased memory allowance in eclipse.ini. Then, I tried updating everything. I installed latest Eclipse Indigo, ADT plugin and android-sdk, all from scratch. Now, I have latest version of all components, but result didn’t change and I keep receiving same error.
Stack trace is as follows, please post any ideas to solve this.
