Hi Martin!
I think there is not error, my problem is how to declare in Eclipse 3.5.1 one application using package from other project.

What do you want to do?
Is the error in your Manifest file or in the Manifest given by the tutorial?

Hi!
I’d like try your example for Eclipse 1.5.1.
For the PickYourDude project I have the error message for the Manifest file :
“com.droidnova.android.sample.Contacts does not exist”
normal because I must declare the link with the LinkContacts project.
How can I declare this ?
(PickYourDude->Properties->… etc?)

Hi Wollis,

sorry, Wordpress strips your lines without warning. It always do so if you post html/xml tags :/

Anyway, this application was created with SDK 1.1 as far as I can remember.

I know that the Contacts where changed during SDK updates, so please look at the official documentation for more information.

I will update this example asap.

Hi,
I really appreciate this tutorial. But I do not understand these lines in Manifest.xml:

What exactly does it mean? (I’m newbie in this field so please be patient )
I cannot see any class whit name Contacts. Is there some other part of this tutorial where is class Contacts implemented?
Thanks for your comment.

Hey,

no thats not correct. In your Manifest you have used this line of code:

1	android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/app_name">

That means that android check your locale and display in the main menu the app_name you defined in your string.xml

You can check that on the emulator! It is directly active after installing the application. And it will change without starting the app if you change your locale.

Hi Martin,

I’m sory but I don’t understand.

With your solution you need to launch at least one time the app to change the app name. It’s right?
