R.java won't generate

I am currently working on a project in which I was updating a ListView's adapter from ArrayAdapter to a Custom CursorAdapter.

I deleted the R.java intentionally to regenerate the R.java file after inserting a new <string></string> to the res/string.xml file since it was not automatically regenerating. The file did not generate.

I continued to debug, and ran a Project->Clean... in attempt to regenerate the R.java file. This did not work either.

After checking StackOverflow, I also tried changing the version in AndroidManifest.xml in hope to regenerate the file. This also did not work. I've tried a few other hacks in hopes something might have Eclipse regenerate the file. No Luck.

Does anyone have any idea? I am on a tight deadline and this is really holding me back.

Here is the file I was working in when the issue arose:

I have solution, I hope this will help you. !!

Step 1) Change Build Target

For Example, if you selected 2.2 as Build Target then select Maximum you have. (like 4.4)

And if you selected 4.4 then select 4.3 as target.

Build Target

Step 2) Clean Project

Clean Project

It will create R.java again

Thank you.

This usually happens because there is an issue somewhere in your XML or resource file names. Try restarting Eclipse, if it still does not indicate where the problem is, try retracing your steps the last changes you made to XML files before this problem occurred. You will find some kind of syntax error or spelling mistake or invalid file name somewhere. Fix it then clean again.
