When trying to view a layout in the drag and drop interface for the Android IDE, you may see this error:
Eclipse is loading framework information and the Layout library from the SDK folder. main.xml will refresh automatically once the process is finished
FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!
If that happens, then simply close Eclipse and open up the Eclipse plugins folder and search for "com.android.*".
The biggest version number is the one you should keep. Anything else should be removed.
In my case, I had 4 files to delete from v0.8:
- com.android.ide.eclipse.editors_0.8.0.v200809220836-110569.jar
- com.android.ide.eclipse.adt_0.8.0.v200809220836-110569.jar
- com.android.ide.eclipse.common_0.8.0.v200809220836-110569.jar
- com.android.ide.eclipse.ddms_0.8.0.v200809220836-110569.jar
Remove the old plugins and all should be well.
Time for a victory dance.
