将Android项目导入Android Studio后出现“不受支持的类型错误”

Question

( I am new to forum so please ignore any mistake while posting. I have already tried alot to tackle this error. )
I am new (Intern) to android. My boss asked me make some changes in existing Eclipse project.

For importing project to Android Studio, I commented out the following lines in project.properties file

#android.library.reference.1=..\\google-play-services_lib
#android.library.reference.2=../androidv7-appcompatz

Project successfully imported and I added dependencies.

Upon building the project I got the following error

:app:generateDebugResValues UP-TO-DATE
:app:generateDebugResources
:app:mergeDebugResources
E:\Workspace\Intern\Quran\AlAjmi\app\src\main\res\values\category_lists.xml
Error:Error: Unsupported type 'category_list'
:app:mergeDebugResources FAILED
Error:Execution failed for task ':app:mergeDebugResources'.
> E:\Workspace\Intern\Quran\AlAjmi\app\src\main\res\values\category_lists.xml: Error: Unsupported type 'category_list'
Information:BUILD FAILED

Screenshot of error

Here is category_list.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <item type="category_list" name="row">false</item>
</resources>

I don't know the types and files declared in values folder. Please have a look and elaborate.

Android Studio - Error importing project Error:Execution failed for task ':app:mergeDebugResources'

Answer 1

As the error states "category_list" is not a valid resource value type . (even in Eclipse, so Gradle is doing you a favor here)

Your options are booleans, integers, strings, dimensions, etc.

You can see the full list of valid types for more detail.

Perhaps, you meant this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <bool name="category_list_row">false</bool>
</resources>
