Android上的Libgdx无法检测GDX字体

Question

I am trying to render simple text using the libgdx BitmapFont :

 font = new BitmapFont();
 font.draw(batch, "Tap anywhere to begin!", 100, 100);

It works fine in the desktop,But android it gives this error:

07-30 08:12:35.518: ERROR/AndroidRuntime(817): FATAL EXCEPTION: GLThread 82

Seems it is unable to load the font file

File not found: com/badlogic/gdx/utils/arial-15.fnt (Classpath)

I am using intelliJ Idea not the Eclipse IDE. I think this is due to some path configuration issue but not able to figure out what. Can someone help me out?

Update

I have opened sample libgdx demo apk created using eclipse , it has these 4 files in the gdx utils folder

• arial-15.fnt
• arial-15.png
• JsonReader.rl
• XmlReader.rl

whereas in my apk generated using intelliJ , it has only 2 files

• JsonReader.rl
• XmlReader.rl

arial-15 is missing.

Answer 1

After I removed the gdx-sources.jar from main lib dir,every thing works fine. Maybe a bug of IntelliJ IDEA?

Answer 2

Link the assets between Android module and Main module:

Create a directory named data in the main module, and make a sym-link from the assets directory in the Android module.

Here's the reference .

Answer 3

removing the gdx-sources.jar from main libs dir, works fine but we need the documentation when we press Ctrl+Q when using IntelliJ.

So, I didn't delete the gdx-sources.jar but I MOVED it in a new directory under Main , named it sourcelibs and then I went to project structure/Libraries/Mainlibs (or whatever) and at the dependencies I deleted the sources entry (it had no meaning any more) and pressed the "plus sign" to attach files or directories and I added the new directory. Now there is a new sources entry with the new directory.

So now there is no error (thanks to user2206917), and we also have the documentation!

Answer 4

I got this error because of a problem with the desktop run configuration. As noted on the libgdx docs (Alternative 2: Working directory) the working directory of the build configuration should be set to the android/assets folder.
