    copied!<p>I have a slight issue. When I add items to the menu.xml file, the R.java file in the gen folder does not generate. I've used the same code before and no problems have arisen. I am using Eclipse with the ADT plugin on Windows 7. </p> <p>Here is the menu.xml file code:</p> <pre><code>&lt;menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" tools:context="com.andrewq.planets.MainActivity" &gt; &lt;item android:id="@+id/action_about" android:icon="@drawable/action_about" android:title="@string/action_about" android:orderInCategory="1" android:showAsAction="always"/&gt; &lt;item android:id="@+id/action_settings" android:title="@string/action_settings" android:orderInCategory="100" app:showAsAction="never" /&gt; &lt;/menu&gt; </code></pre> <p>And here is the code used in MainActivity.java:</p> <pre><code>//Method used to inflate the menu @Override public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) { getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu); return true; } //Method used to add items to the menu @Override public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) { super.onOptionsItemSelected(item); switch (item.getItemId()) { case R.id.action_about: aboutMenuItem(); break; case R.id.action_settings: Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), Settings.class); startActivity(intent); break; } return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item); } </code></pre> <p>FYI -- Here is some Manifest information:</p> <pre><code>&lt;uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="11" android:targetSdkVersion="19" /&gt; </code></pre> <p>EDIT: The problem seems to arise when the items are added to the menu.xml files. If I delete the items, it just says it can't find <code>action_about</code> or <code>action_settings</code> whereas when the items are there the R.java file disappears.</p> <p>EDIT #2: Here are some screenshots of code setup:</p> <blockquote> <p>Here is a picture of the XML code with the items commented out.</p> </blockquote> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/oR5Fv.png" alt="XML Items commented out"></p> <blockquote> <p>And the Java code while items are commented out says that it can't find action_settings or action_about:</p> </blockquote> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/FxvLF.png" alt="Java code while commented out"></p> <blockquote> <p>And finally, the errors output while items are commented out:</p> </blockquote> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/f95QH.png" alt="errors while commented out"></p> <p><br> <br></p> <p>Now if I take the comment brackets out like so:</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/CS8O4.png" alt="uncommented"></p> <p>The following errors arise which can't seem to be solved:</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/W7qj9.png" alt="uncommented errors"></p> <p><br> I hope this can help someone solve my problem. I've never had this problem before.</p> <p>Thanks, <br> Andrew</p>
