Error after adding Fabric Crashlytics in Android

Question

I am implementing crashlytics in my Android app. I installed fabric plugin for Eclipse using install new software. I created a sample software for checking the implementation of flurry and it worked successfully,but when i tried adding flurry to my app software it started giving me error:

R cannot be resolved to a variable

if I remove all the additions done by fabric to my source code and build the project everything goes fine

I tried by updating the Android SDK,ADT but nothing worked for me.

Answer 1

I had several issues integrating Crashlytics. Here, I discuss a resolution for building missing/not-built Crashlytics 'kits' libraries in Eclipse .

My second and final issue concerned the merging of 'AndroidManifest.xml' files, between my main project and it's dependency projects. For instance, the min:sdk .... The following links demonstrate the fix (NB I will edit this further, later) :

Answer 2

A little too late, but it sure will help

Go to your project/project.properties, remove the text manifestmerger.enabled=true

Then the R cannot be resolved error should be fixed now.

Next if you try to run the project, it will (hopefully not) pop up an error something like this in your Console

Android Dx Error1 Failed to convert to Dalvik format

Here you will need to add in ALL the library from kit-libs folder into your build path, BUT , DO NOT check all the Craslytics's libraries in Order & Export , including the android.jar

Build & Run, the project should work now (In my case)

Hopefully you can too.
