Android Lint Doesn't Show Translation Missing Errors

I am using Android SDK 16.1 with Eclipse on Windows.

I've set ANDROID_LINT_COMPLETE_REGIONS as a Windows environment variable per the documentation

I've rebooted my computer.

I've verified the System.getenv("ANDROID_LINT_COMPLETE_REGIONS") uses Windows System Variables.

I've verified that translation errors are turned on.

However, what I'm wanting/expecting to error is not. I have an English string in "/res/values/strings.xml" that is not in "/res/values-xx/strings.xml". I expect lint to error because I've set ANDROID_LINT_COMPLETE_REGIONS. Looking at the source in the SDK, it seems like it should work.

Anyone got something else I should try?

Update: I have tried this on a Mac and while I have persisted ANDROID_LINT_COMPLETE_REGIONS="1", I can't get an error to occur in Eclipse.

Whatever this problem was, upgrading to Android SDK 17 fixes this issue for me. Lint can now detect when I do not translate a string.

I set it as a user variable (Windows XP), verified that it appears in a cmd prompt with the set command, and it appears to be working in eclipse after restarting it.
